Abstract EN
Hemangiomas are rare benign vascular tumors; there are several types including the capillary hemangiomas, we present the case of an exceptional localization of capillary hemangioma in the middle ear.
We report the case of a 60-year-old female which consults for episodes of pulsatile tinnitus, otorragies, and hearing loss of the left ear.
The clinical examination revealed a reddish polypoid mass in the left external auditory canal, the radiological tests showed a vascular mass in the middle left ear.
The tumor was surgically removed, the histological study revealed a capillary hemangioma.
The incidence of hemangiomas in the temporal bone, especially in the middle ear, is exceptional.
Medical imaging guides to the vascular nature of these tumors that make confusion with other vascular tumors such as tympanic paragangliomas.
The management is often surgical and the final diagnosis is histological.
