Abstract:
:We report a large trigeminal neurinoma in an 18-month-old child involving the Gasserian ganglion and all three divisions in a plexiform pattern. The tumour in the ophthalmic division extended all the way to the supraorbital nerve. The child presented with proptosis which had been observed since she was 4 months of age. There was a family history of neurofibromatosis.
