title: [Surgical treatment of glomus tumors in the middle ear].
abstract: Twelve 42-63 year-old women were treated surgically for glomal tumors of the middle ear. The operation implied removal of the posterior wall of the external acoustic meatus along the canal of the facial nerve. This provided creation of a wide cavity and approach directly to the base of the tumor. In glomal tumors of the middle ear surgical treatment is a method of choice. The proposed surgical approach is thought optimal for removal of middle ear chemodectoma.
