ES commonly present in the second decade of life, and it is usually treated by multi‐modality including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. In this case, a 13 years old boy presented with left facial palsy and hearing loss for two weeks, treated with steroid but no improvement. MRI was done and showed left jugular foramen and cerebellopontine mass measuring 4.8*4.4* 3 cm.
