Çocukluk çağındaki trigeminal schwannomun BT ve MRG bulguları: Olgu sunumu

Bu Schwannomlar, sıklıkla vestibulokohlear sinirden köken alan sinir kılıfının primer tümörleridir. Bu olgu bildirisinde schwannomlarm daha nadir rastlanılan trigeminal formuna ve özellikle literatürde çok az değinildiğini gördüğümüz çocukluk yaş grubuna ait bir örnek sunduk.
