    Glomus tympanicum is a tumour classified under the group glomus tumours, and is also known as paragangliomas. It is thought to commonly occur in women in the fifth to sixth decades of life. Here, we report a case of a 77-year-old lady with multiple co-morbids and a diagnosis of glomus tympanicum presenting to us. Her symptoms included pulsatile tinnitus, and reduced hearing, and the management of the case was done with consideration for her underlying multiple co-morbidities. This paper also describes the best modality of treatment for this patient with regard to her background history. The treatment goal was to improve her quality of life and control the disease.

    A 5-year-old girl presented with a history of
    fever for four days associated with odynophagia.
    She was treated with amoxycillin prescribed
    by a general practitioner for 3 days prior to
    presentation. However, the symptoms were
    worsening and associated with drooling of
    saliva and poor oral intake. There was history
    of recurrent acute tonsillitis in the past two
    years, with 5 to 6 episodes per year. The child
    had completed regular immunizations up to her
    current age. There was no similar presentation
    amongst family members and friends. (Copied from article).
