Abstract
We report a case of glomus tympanic tumor in an 18-year-old male who presented with right hearing loss. Otoscopic examination revealed a reddish mass in the tympanic cavity through the tympanic membrane. Angiographic findings showed that the tumor feeding arteries were the ascending pharyngeal artery and middle meningeal artery. The tumor was completely resected after embolization of the feeder vessels. No recurrence was detected as of one year after surgery.
