Two cases of trigeminal neurinoma in two infant girls aged 3 and 6 months are reported. Both presented with temporal cranial vault bulging at birth. The 6-month-old patient suffered onset of focal fits 1 month before admission and her neurological examination revealed no abnormalities. The 3-month-old patient had right exophthalmus and a subcutaneous fronto-orbital plexiform neurofibroma at birth. Neurological examination disclosed a sensory deficit of the first trigeminal nerve division. She also had a family medical history of von Reckling-hausen's disease. The incidence of trigeminal neurinomas in children is reviewed. The patients in these two cases are the youngest recorded; the cases are the only ones reported in infants. Clinical, radiological, and therapeutic aspects are discussed.
