  • Title: Endolymphatic sac tumour.
    Author: Zulkarnaen M, Tang IP, Wong SL.
    Journal: Malays J Pathol; 2012 Jun; 34(1):53-5. PubMed ID: 22870599.
    Abstract:
    We present a case of a papillary tumour at the cerebellopontine angle in a 41-year-old man. He presented with left-sided facial and ear pain associated with dizziness, nystagmus and hearing loss. CT scan of the temporal bone showed a destructive tumour at the left cerebellopontine angle. Surgical excision was performed and the diagnosis of the endolymphatic sac tumour was made. Endolymphatic tumour is a low grade adenocarcinoma that originates from the endolymphatic sac. The definitive diagnosis requires a combination of clinical features, radiological finding and pathological correlation.
