ABSTRACT
This paper reviews and expands the Jefferson's Classification regarding the localization of trigeminal schwannomas. The authors present a series of specific surgical approaches best suited to remove these tumors. Using skull base neurosurgical techniques, the authors present the most direct, efficient and safety surgical approaches to remove each of five different types of trigeminal schwannomas. Three illustrative cases of their own are also presented.
