Abstract

The clinical results in two patients with glomus tumor recently treated in our department are reported. The first case involved a mixed type of glomus tympanicum tumor and glomus jugulare tumor, while the second case showed glomus jugulotympanicum tumor. These were both classified as class C1 according to Fisch's classification. Both cases were treated surgically by an infratemporal fossa approach. Preoperative embolization diminished bleeding. The first case underwent partial tumor removal with postoperative radiotherapy using a γ-knife. The second case underwent total tumor removal.
