Endoscopic Excision of Glomus Tympanicum: A Case Report

Navigating the delicate anatomy of the middle ear demands precision, especially when confronting rare vascular tumours such as glomus tympanicum. This report highlights the successful endoscopic excision of a glomus tympanicum tumour in a 44-yearold female presenting with persistent tinnitus, hearing loss, and aural fullness. Diagnostic imaging confirmed a Grade 2 glomus tympanicum tumour localised to the middle ear. The patient underwent a successful endoscopic transcanal excision, achieving complete tumour removal without compromising adjacent structures. Postoperative recovery was uneventful, with complete resolution of symptoms. This case underscores the efficacy, safety, and favourable outcomes of minimally invasive endoscopic techniques for treating localised glomus tympanicum tumours.
