Abstract
The occurrence of cerebellopontine angle (CPA) medulloblastoma is a rare phenomenon. We report such a case in a 19-year-old girl who had 6th and 8th cranial nerve palsies as well as cerebellar dysfunction. The tumour arose from the left flocculus or adjacent cerebellar hemisphere and projected into the CPA. She was treated by subtotal removal of the tumour, followed by entire neuroaxis irradiation and immunochemotherapy. The clinical characteristics and pathogenesis of CPA medulloblastoma are reviewed and discussed.
