title: Lipoma in the region of the jugular foramen.
abstract: A 22-year-old girl presented with a gradually progressive loss of hearing in the left ear and ipsilateral facial paresis. Investigations revealed a lipoma in the region of the jugular foramen. Conservative resection of the tumor resulted in improvement in facial paresis. The treatment options in such cases are discussed in this report.
