There is a poorly marginated homogeneous enhancing mass lesion centered at the left jugular foramen and causes destructive changes along superolateral margin of jugular foramen. Lesion causes erosive change at ipsilateral jugular spine, posterior wall of vertical segment of petrous internal carotid artery, mastoid segment of facial nerve and floor of middle ear cavity. Left mastoid cells were opacified.
