    Abstract:
    On the basis of the clinical examination of 99 patients, researchers distinguished the clinical forms of the glomus tumour of the temporal bone and of the base of the skull: glomus jugulare tumour, tympanic glomus, glomus of the pyramid of the temporal bone, glomus of the vagus nerve. Every clinical form is characterized both by general symptoms and by signs which appear only with the given form. The peculiarity of the clinical course of glomus tumours is due to intracranial growth, malignization and also by recurrence and prolonged growth.
