Abstract:
Tumoral lesions of the temporal bone are relatively rare. Cross-sectional imaging plays an important role in the description of extension of these lesions. In certain lesions, imaging characteristics are rather specific, giving a clue to diagnosis. The most common tumoral lesions of the external, middle, and inner ear are discussed. Some rare lesions are also highlighted.
