AbstractIn four cases with trigeminal neuralgia an intracranial neoplasm was detected. In the first two cases a meningioma of the cerebellopontine angle was producing symptomatic trigeminal neuralgia almost identical to the essential one. In the other two cases with a tumor in the gasserian ganglion area the facial pain was of a more atypical nature. In all four cases associated sensory trigeminal deficits were present. The causative factors which may produce symptomatic trigeminal neuralgia are especially discussed in this paper.
