摘要
Case report: Two patients with a posterior fossa arachnoid cyst responsible for isolated facial nerve palsy are reported. Discussion: The relationships between the cyst and the facial nerve and between the facial nerve palsy and the size variation of the cyst are discussed and documented by pre- and postoperative magnetic resonance imaging.
