Figure 1
Figures 1A and 1B: T2-weighted MRI demonstrated a large ovoid mass in
the right parapharyngeal space splaying the carotid artery and its
branches and effacing the internal jugular vein. The tumor was
heterogeneously hyperintense relative to skeletal muscle.
Figure 1C: The lesion exhibits homogeneous avid enhancement after
administration of gadolinium-based contrast, consistent with a
radiologic diagnosis of schwannoma.
Figure 1D: Imaging 6 months post-operatively demonstrates no evidence of
disease.
