  • Title: Aggressive osteoblastoma in mastoid process of temporal bone with facial palsy.
    Author: Jain M, Rana C, Rajkumar.
    Journal: Indian J Pathol Microbiol; 2013; 56(2):169-71. PubMed ID: 24056660.
    Abstract:
    Osteoblastoma is an uncommon primary bone tumor with a predilection for posterior elements of spine. Its occurrence in temporal bone and middle ear is extremely rare. Clinical symptoms are non-specific and cranial nerve involvement is uncommon. The cytomorphological features of osteoblastoma are not very well defined and the experience is limited to only few reports. We report an interesting and rare case of aggressive osteoblastoma, with progressive hearing loss and facial palsy, involving the mastoid process of temporal bone and middle ear along with the description of cyto-morphological features.
