ABSTRACT
A huge, ossified and highly vascular glomus jugulare tumour in a 19-year-old boy was radically and successfully resected. External carotid artery embolization and intermittent internal carotid artery trapping during surgery were the principle methods employed to control the operative blood loss. Extensive petrous bone resection, and adequate and wide exposure were necessary. The case and the operative steps in this unusual and difficult surgical problem are discussed.
