INTRODUCTION
It is the commonest benign tumour of middle ear.
It is BENIGN, SLOW GROWING, HYPERVASCULAR tumour.
It is so named because of its origin from glomus bodies found over jugular bulb & promontory.
It also contains paraganglionic cells derived from neural crest.

HISTORY
1840 – Valentine described it first as Ganglia Tympanica.
1902 – Guild found similarities between these tumour & carotid body & coined the term Glomus Jugulare.
1924 – Mason was first to describe Glomus tumours as hyperplastic glomus bodies.
1945 – Rosenwassser was first to diagnose a patient with glomus tumour & it’s surgical excision.

WHAT ARE PARAGANGLIA ???
Paraganglia cells are derived from the neural crest.
Histologically, they resemble carotid body.
In middle ear paraganglia are distributed over –
1. Promontory – Along the branches of tympanic branch of glossopharyngeal N. or auricular br. Of vagus
2. Dome of jugular bulb – Adventitial layer
Paraganglia contain two types of cells:
Type 1 → Chief cells or Granular cells → Release catecholamine
Type 2 → Supporting or Sustentacular cells.

INCIDENCE
1 in 100000
5 times more common in female.
Autosomal Dominant inheritance.
Gene responsible is located on chromosome – 11q23
Age – Most commonly seen in 5th decade of life.
Commonly affected ear - LEFT

PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
Benign, Encapsulated, Slow growing, Highly vascular, Locally invasive tumour that erodes bone.
Expand within temporal bone via pathways of least resistance – air cells , vascular lumens , skull Base foramina & the eustachian tube.
Intially erodes in region of jugular fossa & posteroinferior petrous bone with subsequent extension to the mastoid & adjacent occipital bone.
The middle ear ossicles are commonly spared.
Intracranial & extracranial extension occur.
Metastases from glomus tumors occur in approximately 4% of cases. - Lung, Lymph nodes, Liver, Vertebrae, Ribs, and Spleen.

HISTOLOGY
Macroscopically – Deep red firm mass that bleeds profusely on touch.
Microscopically – Clusters of Chief cells arranged in nested pattern called ZELLBALLEN enclosed by fibrous stroma with rich vascular plexus.
Guild classified Glomus tumours into 2 types histologically –
1. Cellular Glomus
2. Vascular Glomus

TYPES
2 types according to site of origin –
1. GLOMUS TYMPANICUM – Arising from promontory.
2. GLOMUS JUGULARE – Arising from dome of jugular bulb.

CLINICAL FEATURES
When tumor is Intratympanic –
1. Earliest symptoms are deafness (conductive) and pulsatile tinnitus abolished by carotid pressure.
2. Otoscopy - Red reflex, Rising Sun appearance, Bulging TM.
3. Browne’s Sign - When ear canal pressure is raised with Siegel's speculum, tumor pulsates vigorously and then blanches
4. Aquino sign - It is blanching of the mass with manual compression of ipsilateral carotid artery.

CLINICAL FEATURES
When tumor present as polyp -
1. History of profuse bleeding from the ear either spontaneously or on attempts to clear it.
2. Dizziness, vertigo, Facial Paralysis, earache, otorrhea.
3. Audible bruit : Heard by stethoscope over mastoid at all stages.

CLINICAL FEATURES
Multiple Cranial Nerve Palsies IX, X, XI, XII Late feature apppearing several years after ear symptoms Dysphagia, Hoarsenes, Palatal Palsy Atrophy of tongue muscles Weakness of Trapezius & Sternocleidomastoid M.

SPREAD OF GLOMUS TUMOUR
Perforate TM → Polyp Invade Mastoid, Labyrinth & Petrous pyramid Invade Jugular foramen & Base of skull → IX to XII Cr N. Palsy Eustachian Tube → Nasopharynx Spread Intracranially to Posterior & Middle cranial fossa Metastasis to lungs & bones (Rare)

INVESTIGATION
CT Scan of head with Bony window 1mm slice → PHELP’S SIGN – Obliteration of CJ spine
Gd enhanced MRI – Multiple vascular flow voids→ Salt And Pepper Pattern
4 vessel Angiography – Commonest feeding vessel → Inferior Tympanic Br. Of Ascending Pharyngeal A.
Radionuclide Scintigraphy – To detect multifocal Para-ganglioma
Serum catecholamine levels.
24 hr urine for catecholamine , metanephrine & VMA.

TREATMENT
Treatment of choice – Microsurgical total tumor removal after pre – op embolization of feeding vessel.
Inoperable case - Radiation
![Page 23: Glomus Tumour](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102323/58eb77fd1a28abe5508b45fb/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
ROLE OF RADIOTHERAPY
Controversial
Fibrosis of arterioles rather then direct affect on tumour cells.
Stereotactic radiotherapy , achieve tumour control rate of 80 – 90 %.
Contraindication – Intracranial Extention

SURGICAL APPROACHES
Glomus Tympanicum with entire circumference visible - Transcanal approach Glomus Tympanicum with extension to hypotympanum - Hypotympanic approach Glomus Tympanicum extending to mastoid - Extended Facial Recess approach Glomus Jugulare not extending to ICA, Neck, Postr. Fossa - Mastoid Neck approach Large Glomus Jugulare - Infratemporal fossa approach Tumours extending towards Foramen Magnum - Transcondylar approach
