    AbstractWe report a newly evidenced cause of venous pulsatile tinnitus--the petrosquamosal sinus in the temporal bone. We also present the case of a 45-year-old woman who presented with an incapacitating objective pulsatile tinnitus in the left ear for 10 years. The radiology evidenced a petrosquamosal sinus in the air cells of the left temporal bone. The symptoms of pulsatile tinnitus disappeared completely after surgical treatment.Copyright © 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
