Abstract

This study reports a 12-year-old male was referred to our institute with a mass in the right ear. The mass was rapidly growing thus needing an immediate surgical attention. MRI revealed an exophytic, hyper vascular mass extending to the right jugular fossa and, the middle ear, and to the right acoustic meatus, suggestive of a right glomus jugulare tumor. Angiography showed a hypervascular lesion with robust feeding from the superficial temporal artery and right occipital artery. After surgery, the patient rapidly recover and he was discharged home on the 5th day after surgery. Three months after surgery, the lump reappeared and grew rapidly as before.
