Abstract

The patient was 67-year-old female who complained of pulsatile tinnitus in the right ear. Otoscopy revealed a reddish mass that extended to the annulus.CT, MRI and angiography localized it in the middle ear cavity and distinguished it from the jugular bulb. The tumor was completely resected by posterior hypotympanotomy after embolization of the superior tympanic artery. Absence of tumor recurrence was con-firmed 8 months after surgery. We discuss the benefits of preoperative diagnostic imaging methods.
