Glomus tumor blany bubienka

V práci sa prezentuje prípad veľmi zriedkavej lokalizácie glomus tumoru na blankebubienka. Pri otoskopickom vyšetrení lézia vyzerala ako granulačné tkanivo a nachádzala sav oblasti horných kvadrantov blany bubienka. V diferenciálnej diagnóze sa myslelo na chronickúotitídu, resp. granulomatóznu myringitídu. Definitívna diagnóza sa stanovila na základe histologického vyšetrenia. Tumor sa odstránil spolu s postihnutou časťou blany bubienka a priľahlou kožouvonkajšieho zvukovodu. Vykonala sa myringoplastika. Po pol roku je výborný anatomický výsledok.Funkčný výsledok - prevodová porucha sluchu 20 dB. Iná miestna alebo vzdialená lézia chemodektómu sa v tomto prípade nevyskytla.
