Question 2

My dad is 60 and his MRI showed a small T2 FLAIR hyperintense lesion near the right CP angle, around the 8th nerve and root exit zone of the right 5th nerve. The report says it's likely a trigeminal schwannoma. How serious is this? Would he need surgery or radiation treatment?

Accepted Answer

A trigeminal schwannoma, confirmed by MRI showing a T2 FLAIR hyperintense lesion in the CP angle, is generally considered a benign tumor that can often be managed with surgery. The tumor's size and location near the 8th and 5th cranial nerves require careful consideration, but surgical removal is often the primary treatment. Radiation therapy may also be an option in some cases, particularly for larger or unresectable tumors
