Abstract

Acoustic neuroma is the commonest cerebello-pontine angle(CPA) tumour. It is a benign tumour of intracranial segment of the vestibulo-cochlear cranial nerve. In this pictoral essay, we used MRI images to highlight typical imaging features of acoustic neuroma. Our patient was a 51 year old male Cameronian civil servant with a right CPA mass. This was preceded by right unilateral sensori-neural hearing loss and disequilibrium. MRI has been adjudged to be the most recent and best radiological diagnostic tool in the evaluations of acoustic neuroma
