The complexity and morbidity of surgery for these lesions have allowed stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) to emerge as a safe and viable option for treatment.

We present three patients with trigeminal neuropathy with imaging suggesting trigeminal schwannoma. Primary clinicians recommended primary radiosurgery to these patients based on radiological diagnosis. Upon further evaluation and clinical suspicion, we established alternate diagnoses of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, lepromatous trigeminal nerve involvement, and Aspergillosis involving the Meckel's cave in three cases. Each patient received appropriate treatment instead of SRS. SRS is one of the treatment options for trigeminal schwannomas. No neurosurgical ailment should be treated on its face value with primary SRS, but it must be carefully evaluated on a clinicoradiological profile.
