chondroblastoma/hearing loss

The objective of this paper was to review temporal bone chondroblastomas in regard to their presentation, radiographic findings, histopathology, and treatment. A case report of a 38-year-old man who presented with the left-sided hearing impairment and temporal swelling was reviewed. A CT scan

Objectives: Chondroblastoma is an uncommon benign neoplasm of cartilaginous origin usually involving the long bones. The temporal bone is a rare location for this tumor. As such, the clinical profile, optimal medical and surgical

Benign chondroblastoma is a rare tumor in the temporal bone. It occurs preponderantly in middle-aged men as a mass in the postero-superior region of the ear canal and is accompanied by hearing loss. On pathologic examination, giant cells and focal regions of chondroid differentiation are noted.

BACKGROUND Chondroblastoma is a rare tumor that can involve the temporal bone. Because it is a benign tumor, functional surgery must be proposed. We report a case of a patient with a massive chondroblastoma operated on with preservation of the facial nerve, and description of the surgical

OBJECTIVE To review temporal bone chondroblastomas in regards to their presentation, radiographic findings, histopathology, and treatment.Study design Case report and literature review. METHODS A case report of a 38-year-old man is reviewed who presented with left-sided mixed hearing loss, otalgia,

BACKGROUND Skull chondroblastoma is extremely rare. We described in this study the first case of petrousal bone apex chondroblastoma. METHODS The tumor occurred in a 12-year-old girl and was revealed by left hypoacusis, vertigo, and walking instability. Computerized tomography scan depicted

A 33-year-old male sustained hearing disturbance in the left ear that exacerbated over a period of three years. The patient was referred to the department of otorhynolaryngology for severe stenosis of the left external auditory canal, where neuroimaging study revealed a huge tumor in the left

Chondroblastomas are highly destructive tumors that are derived from immature cartilage cells. The occurrence of this tumor in the temporal bone or skull base is uncommon. Approximately 70 cases have previously been reported, several of which have involved the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). We

Introduction: Chondroblastoma is an uncommon benign, locally destructive tumor that usually arises from epiphyses of the long bones. Temporal bone chondroblastoma is an extremely rare occurrence. Chondroblastoma arise from immature

Purpose: To describe and analyse functional treatment of temporal bone chondroblastoma (TBCh). Methods: From January 2000 to June 2019, at the Department of

We present a case involving a late diagnosis of chondroblastoma of the temporal skull base involving the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Following an initial misdiagnosis and unsuccessful treatment over a period of 5 years, the patient was referred to our department for further evaluation and
