Six cases of neurogenic tumors developing in the infratemporal fossa are reported. These are neuromas or neurofibromas in 5 cases and meningioma in 1 case only. The first 4 cases are primary tumors of the infratemporal fossa, while the last 2 tumors have developed into the temporal fossa from neighboring lesions. Computed tomography and RMI are irreplaceable techniques to assess the extension of such tumors and their connection with the neighboring organs, and to guide the treatment, which must be surgical whenever possible. Complete exeresis of the tumor is difficult. These examinations are also essential for follow-up and for the early detection of possible recurrence.
