  • Title: [Pulsatile tinnitus associated with a high jugular bulb and slow venous blood flow].
    Author: López-Escámez JA, Gamero C, Castillo JL, Amador JM.
    Journal: Acta Otorrinolaringol Esp; 1997 Oct; 48(7):557-60. PubMed ID: 9489158.
    Abstract:
    A case of permanent pulsatile tinnitus of the left ear in a patient with hypertriglyceridemia is reported. The combined radiological study with computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and digital angiography excluded a glomus tumor and revealed an enlarged, high-position jugular bulb with slow blood flow. Causes of pulsatile tinnitus are discussed. We conclude that imaging techniques play a major role in the diagnosis of head and neck vascular abnormalities.
