Malignes Melanom des Felsenbeins

Abstract: The present article describes a case of malignant melanoma with the rare localisation in the right temporal bone. The 79-year old female patient presented a polypous tumour with obturation of the outer ear canal and sanguineous otorrhoea (Fig. 1). The inner ear function was impaired showing a combined defective hearing and complete peripheral palsy of the facial nerve as well as an abducens nerve palsy (Fig. 1) with diplopia. CT and MR imaging showed a tumour destroying the temporal bone up to the apex of the … Show more

“…Moreover, most patient-reported symptoms due to MM, including hearing loss, otalgia, or otorrhea, are common and may be secondary to a myriad of etiologies. Nevertheless, physicians should include temporal bone MM as a potential diagnosis in patients presenting with bloody otorrhea in the context of a chronic, recurrent serous otitis media, as observed in several of the patients in the current review (22,24–28). Furthermore, CN V, VI, and VII palsies should indicate the need for immediate further workup for potential temporal bone disease (8,20,21,28–31).…”

“…Nevertheless, physicians should include temporal bone MM as a potential diagnosis in patients presenting with bloody otorrhea in the context of a chronic, recurrent serous otitis media, as observed in several of the patients in the current review (22,(24)(25)(26)(27)(28). Furthermore, CN V, VI, and VII palsies should indicate the need for immediate further workup for potential temporal bone disease (8,20,21,(28)(29)(30)(31). Recognizing the aforementioned symptoms earlier may promote the timely diagnosis of temporal bone MM, which has historically been one of the largest obstacles in improving patient outcomes (32).…”

“…Tm Hinblick auf die praktische Bedeutung des Lymphknotenstatus für die Prognose und die adäquate Therapie ware aber gerade eine FrBherkennung metastatischer Lymphknoten im palpatorischen und radiologischen N0-Hals evident. Im vorliegenden Patientenkollektiv fanden sich in vier Fallen Diskutiert werden mull in diesem Zusammenhang der möglicherweise meningeale Ursprung eines Felsenbeinmelanoms (21). Bei dieser Patientin mit fehiender neurologischer Symptomatik lagen jedoch keine intrazerebralen melanomverdachtigen Bezirke vor.…”

“…Beim Beweis durch Augenschein macht der Richter unmittelbare Sinneswahrnehmungen über körperliche Zustände oder Eigenschaften von Personen oder Sachen 827 . Unter Auskunftssachen versteht man heute nicht bloß die vom Gesetz explizit angeführten Denkmäler, Grenzzeichen, Marksteine ( § 318 ZPO ), sondern ebenso Bild-und Tonträger sowie elektronische Dokumente, wenn dadurch Gedanken mit anderen Mitteln als menschlicher Schrift verkörpert werden 828 ; Auskunftssachen wird deshalb gleichsam eine Mittelstellung zwischen Urkunden und Augenscheinsgegenständen zugeschrieben 829 .…”
