Introduction: Vestibular schwannomas are benign tumors of the cerebellopontine angle whose surgical management is particularly challenging in large lesions because of their proximity to the facial nerve, brainstem, and other critical neurovascular structures. In patients with non-serviceable hearing, the translabyrinth...

Introduction: Suprasellar epidermoid tumors are rare benign congenital lesions that account for less than 1% of all intracranial tumors and present unique surgical challenges due to their proximity to critical neurovascular structures. These lesions are particularly uncommon in the pediatric population, with visual fie...
