A rare case of a 47-year old female with hemifacial spasm of the one-year duration as the initial and only symptom of posterior fossa meningioma is reported. At first the patient did not consent to surgery and was unsuccessfully treated with anticonvulsants. A month prior to her admission she started to complain of headache and balance disorder, and developed sensory loss to light touch in II and III branches of the right V nerve. CT revealed a huge posterior fossa meningioma. After a total removal of meningioma, the patient's hemifacial spasm disappeared.
