Abstract
Tinnitus is a common symptom encountered by otolaryngologists. Pulsatile ti nnitus is rare and can present a diagnostic challenge. Establishing a diagn osis is important, because pulsatile tinnitus may indicate serious intracra nial or extracranial disease. A unique case of pulsatile tinnitus caused by cervical artery dissection is presented, along with the differential diagn osis and treatment.
