    Author: Reece PH, Higgins N, Hardy DG, Moffat DA.
    Journal: J Laryngol Otol; 1999 Jan; 113(1):55-7. PubMed ID: 10341921.
    Abstract:
    Internal carotid artery aneurysms are a rare cause of pulsatile tinnitus and conductive hearing loss but should be borne in mind when there is a suspected diagnosis of glomus jugulare or high-riding jugular bulb. Most cases are congenital. We present a case of otorrhagia which was initially thought to be a glomus jugulare, the diagnosis of internal carotid artery aneurysm was made at angiography and treated by balloon embolization.
