We present the case of an 34-year-old female who was found to have a left trigeminal schwannoma with a rapid increase in size on imaging, an atypical finding for this type of lesion.. The patient underwent a microsurgical left transorbital approach with lateral orbitotomy to resect the lesion. The internal contents of the cavernous sinus dorsal were preserved. Ultimately, gross total resection was achieved with no residual disease identified on postoperative imaging.
