Facial nerve schwannoma

Discussion:

Above findings are suggestive of facial nerve schwannoma.

Bell's palsy would can show enhancement along the geniculate ganglion, however, it wouldn't cause widening.

Facial nerve hemangioma can show similar nodular enhancement of the geniculate ganglion, however it would show permeative osteolysis rather than widening and remodeling of bony facial canal.
