Hemangioma of The External Auditory Canal: A Case Report

Abstract

Hemangioma is a subtype of benign vascular tumors. Although they are commonly found in head and neck region, they are rare in the external auditory canal. Few cases reported capillary hemangioma in the external auditory canal with surgical excision is the mainstay of management and low recurrence rate. We present a 41-year-old woman with left external auditory canal capillary hemangioma and cartilage with its perichondrium graft was used for repairing the defect after surgical excision.

CyberKnife stereotactic radiosurgery for extramedullary plasmacytoma in the external auditory canal: illustrative case

“… 2 , 3 Plasmacytomas presenting in the external auditory canal (EAC) are exceptionally rare, estimated to account for approximately 1% of all plasmacytomas. 2 …”

“…Although 80% of EMPs occur within the head and neck regions, they constitute less than 1% of all head and neck tumors, emphasizing their rarity. 2,3 Plasmacytomas presenting in the external auditory canal (EAC) are exceptionally rare, estimated to account for approximately 1% of all plasmacytomas. 2 The management of EMP, particular in cases where the lesion presents in the EAC, requires careful consideration of treatment modalities.…”

Conventional approaches predominantly involve radiotherapy and surgery.…”
