Clinical, radiographic, and radionuclide angiographic findings of three cases of jugular glomic tumor associated with hearing loss are discussed. In one case computed tomographic findings are discussed. It is concluded that radioisotopic techniques may be useful in diagnosis and follow-up of this tumor.
