Abstract

The aim of this case report is to discuss a very rare pathology – temporal bone meningioma. The extracranial location of meningiomas and temporal bone meningioma is a very rare condition. The symptomatology of temporal bone meningiomas is nonspecific, imitating chronic otitis media with cholesteatoma. However, temporal bone meningioma has a distinctive image on computed tomography. There is a change in the architecture without bone destruction that should be known by otorhinolaryngologist and radiologist. Magnetic resonance paging should be performed when temporal bone meningioma is suspected. The management of temporal bone meningiomas depends on a variety of factors. The most common therapy includes a combination of neurosurgical and otological surgery. There are also alternatives like stereotactic irradiation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
