Arthrogener Gehörgangstumor

Abstract: We report our findings in two female patients (aged 56 and 64 years) who complained about slight hearing loss that varied during jaw movements. In both cases a polypoid tumor of the external auditory meatus was found that almost completely disappeared with mouth opening. CT showed a bony defect of the anterior wall of the external auditory canal in both patients. Biopsies from the tumor-like lesions were done, revealing a chronic inflammatory hyperplasia of the connective tissue in one case and a rheumatic gra… Show more

In a worldwide literature search, we were able to find only 14 reported cases (Table I), including the case presented here, of spontaneous TMJ herniation 1,4–12 . Ages ranged from 15 to 68 years, with an average of 55 years; 11 cases were 50 years old or older.…”
