Abstract:
A 65-year-old female, who suffered with a longstanding headache, was admitted to our hospital. MR imaging and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) demonstrated a vascular fat-containing mass in the right cerebellopontine angle. The lesion was surgically removed and the diagnosis of angiolipoma was established. The symptoms subsided after the operation.
