Abstract
- Tinnitus is one of the most common complaints in the otolaryngology. It can be classified as either as subjective or objective; the former refering to that sensation heard only by the patient and the latter to that sensation heard also by the examiner. Arteriovenous fistula is the most common cause of objective tinnitus due to the trauma. Recently, the authors experienced one case of the pulsatile tinnitus caused by post-traurnatic arteriovenous fistula involving the superficial temporal artery. This was confirmed by selectcd angiography and was treated by percutaneous transarterial embolization which resulted in the disappearance of tinnitus.
