Cystic olfactory groove schwannoma.
Intracranial schwannoma not related to cranial nerves are unusual and rarely found in the subfrontal region. We report a case of cystic olfactory groove schwannoma in a 55-year- old male, who presented with late onset seizure without raised intracranial pressure. The tumor was excised completely.
