The authors reports on a case of pulsatile tinnitus, where otoscopy revealed a retrotympanic mass. The initial tympanic diagnosis was confirmed by a CT-scan. However, surgical exploration revealed a large artery situated on the promontory. Post-operatory arteriography confirmed that this artery in the tympanic cavity was in fact the internal carotid artery.
作者报告了一例搏动性耳鸣病例，耳镜检查发现鼓室后有一肿物。初步的鼓膜诊断通过CT扫描得以证实。然而，手术探查发现一位于岬部的大动脉。术后动脉造影证实鼓室内的这条动脉实际上是颈内动脉。
