case_images: CT images at the time of presentation: coronal reconstruction in the parenchymal window (a) and in the bone window (b) showing the intracranial extension of the tumor (black arrow) with bone lysis (blue arrow).

case_images: The initial imaging, CT scan (Figure 1) and MRI (Figure 2) of the brain, revealed a mass centered on the right middle ear and extending intracranially opposite the temporal lobe with parenchymal infiltration.
case_images: MR images at the time of presentation: coronal T2-weighted sequence (a) and axial steady-state gradient-echo sequence (b) showing the tumor (asterisk) with its intracranial extension (black arrows). The integrity of the inner ear and the internal auditory canal is noted (blue arrows).

case_images: The initial imaging, CT scan (Figure 1) and MRI (Figure 2) of the brain, revealed a mass centered on the right middle ear and extending intracranially opposite the temporal lobe with parenchymal infiltration.
case_images: CT images 6 months after surgery: axial sections (a, b) and coronal reconstructions in the parenchymal window (c) and in the bone window (d) demonstrate a significant increase in the size of the tumor (black asterisk) with an accentuation of tumor extension into the temporal lobe and the formation of a peritumoral calcified shell (black arows). The 3D reconstruction (e, f) reveals bone lysis with deformation of the temporal bone corresponding to the tumor site (blue arrows).

case_images: Follow up MR images: sagittal T1 sequence (a), coronal FLAIR sequence (b) and axial T2 sequence (c) showing a small residual cavity in the right temporal area (black arrows) with no remaining tumor residue.
