Abstract

Hemangioma of temporal bone or intratemporal hemangioma is a rare benign tumor that has no specific symptoms and signs according to computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging), which makes it difficult to diagnose it early. The percentage of diagnostic errors is quite high. The symptoms of hemangioma of temporal bone depends on its localization. A common localization of hemangioma in the temporal bone is geniculate ganglion and internal auditory canal. According to CT and MRI data, there is no difference between many tumors usually localized in the temporal bone. Angiography complements the preoperative examination, increases the likelihood of a correct diagnosis, and is used to assess the possibility of preoperative embolization. Surgical treatment used in many cases, the purpose of which is the total removal of the tumor. A clinical case of temporal bone hemangioma in a 12-year-old child is presented.
