[Carotid angiography with subtraction for glomus tumours of the middle ear (author's transl)]. 1975

G Caro, and U von Büren, and A Rüttimann, and G von Schulthess

Four patients with glomus tumours of the middle ear are described, in whom carotid angiography with subtraction was carried out. In three patients the tumour could be clearly demonstrated by using the subtraction method. In a fourth case, in whom the diagnosis was made at operation, angiography was unsuccessful.
