title: [Jugular paraganglioma: presentation in the form of an aural polyp].
abstract: Paraganglioma though rare in ENT-pathology are considered the most common middle ear tumors. A few of them show some particularities in its growing mood, for instance under the appearance of a banal polyp lodging in the external ear canal, perhaps the polyp represents only the outer portion of a deeper larger process encroaching the underlying bone, which threat heavy complications, specially at attempts of removal without the prior due complementary explorations. The case reported by the authors was a quickly evolutive syndrome with the polyp associated to otorrhea and facial paresia. The verification of the bone destruction make credible the actual diagnosis, malignant tumor of the temporal bone. Afterwards profuse otorragia suggested the glomic tumor. The paper emphasizes the clinic malignancy of theses growths in spite of their histologic benignity, owing both to its speed evolution and destructive power.
