“…10 Depending on the site of origin of osteoma in the temporal bone there may be tinnitus, hearing loss, vertigo or facial paralysis. 13 Mastoid osteomas are normally asymptomatic stable lesions, but it may produce cosmetic deformities (external bulging of the mass or auricular protrusion), local site tenderness by widening of periosteum or internal lamina cortical involvement and can also interfere with wearing glasses. 1,4 Pressure-induced pain can be referred to the neck, auricle, or middle ear.…”

A 19 year old female presented with painful postaural swelling of three years duration with preceding history of trauma. Clinically and radilogically the diagnosis of mastoid osteoma was made. As patient was symptomatic the osteoma was removed and cortical mastoidectomy was done. We emphasise that symptomatic mastoid osteomas must be treated early even if they are small in size to prevent the development of giant osteomas. The case is reported for its rarity with relevant review of literature. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report in which there is a definitive history of trauma preceding the development of osteoma suggesting its possible role as an inciting factor.

“…Osteomas are a slow growing neoplasm of unknown etiology. There are three theories discussing the etiology: congenital theory, based on facts that some osteomas occurs in male patients in puberty; infectious theory, reported in patients with recurrent suppurative otitis media; and traumatic theory, in cases with micro trauma of subperiostal hematoma [5].…”

Objective: To discuss the surgical treatment of recurrent osteoma of the mastoid process of the temporal bone, that obstructed external auditory canal causing unilateral conductive hearing loss. Setting: The study was carried out in ENT Clinic, University Clinical Center of Kosovo, Prishtina, Kosovo. Design: Retrospective review of a clinical case. Patient, Intervention and Result: We treated surgically with success a 14-year-old boy with osteoma of mastoid process, obstructing the external auditory canal of the left ear and causing conductive hearing loss. Axial and coronal computed tomography scans revealed an compact bone lesion that obstructed the canal. Complete removal of the lesion was achieved by a retroauricular approach. Conclusion: In order to achieve complete removal of the osteoma, drilling of the lesion must be performed not through the tumor, but around the osteoma, in the surrounding bone tissue
