Intracranial hypoglossal neurilemmoma
Abstract
In a patient presenting with long tract motor and sensory signs accompanied by unilateral 12th nerve cranial palsy, we report the successful complete resection of an intra-cranial hypoglossal neurilemmoma. Our case marks the 15th reported observation of such a lesion. The value of computerized tomography in the diagnosis and localization of this type of tumor is emphasized.
