摘要
Extracranial spread of meningiomas to involve the middle ear is very rare. We present the case of a 43-year-old woman with a known cerebellopontine angle meningioma who subsequently presented with left-sided otalgia and a middle-ear mass extruding through the tympanic membrane due to local invasion of the meningioma. The tumour was excised surgically. A discussion of the relevant literature is also presented.
