Skull base surgery for glomus jugulare tumors.
1985
: Thirty-six patients with glomus jugulare tumors have been managed over a 13-year period using various combinations of skull base surgery and irradiation therapy. The data resulting from this study are presented; the techniques of diagnosis and treatment are reviewed. We conclude that irradiation therapy alone is a satisfactory form of treatment for elderly and poor-risk patients; preoperative x-ray therapy followed by skull base surgery is an effective treatment for younger patients.
