“…The hearing level in case 1, with hearing preservation, remained comparable to the healthy side. In irradiated cases, Morita et al 10 reported that hearing worsens after irradiation, but because case 1 did not receive irradiation, its impact on hearing could not be determined.…”

Summary: Malignant tumors of the external auditory canal are rare and require surgical interventions such as lateral temporal bone resection (LTBR) for localized cases. This study introduces a novel approach, the lipofilling fascia flap technique, for external auditory canal reconstruction following LTBR or modified LTBR. The technique involves augmenting the temporal fascia flap with autologous fat grafting, aiming to enhance volume and improve outcomes. Two cases are presented, demonstrating successful reconstruction with minimal complications.

ObjectivesThe rarity of temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma (TBSCC) precludes a clear understanding of the disease and approach to its management. This review provides general background on the disease and discusses the current and emerging oncologic and rehabilitative management options.Data SourcesPubMed literature review.MethodsA review of the current literature was conducted to assess and collate up‐to‐date information regarding TBSCC management.ResultsTBSCC is a rare and aggressive disease arising in the ear canal, temporal bone, or extratemporal sites. Prior radiation, chronic ear disease, or habitual ear picking may contribute to primary disease development. Because the symptoms of TBSCC and benign otologic disease are similar, TBSCC diagnosis may be delayed, allowing the tumor time to spread throughout the anatomically intricate temporal bone. The extent of the disease is determined based on imaging and is usually staged with the Pittsburgh Staging System. Temporal bone resection with parotidectomy and neck dissection is the current standard of care. Survival is generally good for early disease and poor for advanced disease, but chemotherapy is emerging as a promising treatment option. Auditory rehabilitation with osseointegrated hearing aids is recommended at initial oncologic resection.ConclusionsThe knowledge of and outcomes for TBSCC have improved with time, but because of the aggressive nature of the disease and the anatomic intricacy of the temporal bone, TBSCC treatment is complex and should be delivered by a multidisciplinary team. Inter‐institutional collaboration may accelerate research for this rare disease.Level of Evidence5.
