Bilateral Meckels Cave Amyloidoma
J Neuroradiol 39:119-122, Gultasli, N.,et al, 2012
See this aricle in Pubmed
Article Abstract
Primary solitary amyloidoma of Meckel�s cave is rare, and a bilateral location is even more rare. To the best of our knowledge, only 12 cases in the literature have described such a primary lesion, including one case of bilateral involvement of Meckel�s cave. We report here on the case of a 57-year-old woman presenting with pseudotumor masses involving both Meckel�s caves and responsible for trigeminal neuropathy. The final diagnosis of amyloidoma was made on the basis of histological examination of surgical biopsy specimens.
