Abstract
- Glomus tympanicum has to be considered to differentiate the etiology of middle ear mass with pulsatile tinnitus. MRI helps to differentiate the mass. Angiography helps to identify its feeding vessels and to embolize to reduce bleeding on operation. When the mass is not focally localized, tympanotomy combinded with mastoidectomy approach via posterior auricular incision is helpful to remove the mass completely.
