MRI studies with and without contrast showed a giant (45 x 44 x 42 mm) left cerebellopontine angle nonhomogenous mass compatible with a vestibular schwannoma (Fig. 1).
Postoperatively, the tumour is totally removed and place of the craniectomy is seen. The brainstem seems to be returned to rather normal position.
