Ms. Shamsun Nahar, a 30-year-old woman from Bangladesh presented with a mass in the right ear of 14 years duration. She underwent two surgeries at other hospitals for the same complaints but her symptoms persisted. She also developed weakness on the right side of her face for 5 years duration. She was finally referred to Bangalore Skull Base Institute for her complaints.
On examination, she had a polypoidal mass in the right ear with facial nerve paralysis. Other cranial nerves were normal.
HRCT and MRI revealed a tympanojugular paraganglioma with intracranial extension. She underwent an Infratemporal fossa Type-A approach for the removal of the tumor. The tumor was excised in-toto. The patient is now on follow-up and recovering well.
