Abstract
Trigeminal neuromas are rare tumors arising from the trigeminal nerve, often presenting diagnostic challenges due to their infrequent occurrence and varied clinical manifestations. We present a case report of 52 year-old female patient presenting with right diplopia and progressive facial pain resistant to standard treatment. Early recognition and appropriate management are crucial to prevent complications and improve patient outcomes. This report underscores the importance of considering trigeminal neuromas in the differential diagnosis of facial pain and the pivotal role of imaging modalities in guiding clinical management decisions.
