Recurrent Ceruminous Adenocarcinoma of the External Auditory Canal

Abstract: Ceruminous adenocarcinoma is a rare malignant neoplasm of the glandular structures of the external auditory canal. The true incidence and behavior of these rare tumors are still unclear due to confusing terminology, classification and histological definitions. Therefore, the ENT surgeon faces major difficulties in choosing the method of management – conservative or more radical surgery – with the addition or not of radiotherapy. We report a 57-year-old male patient with a recurrence of a previously excised (ma… Show more

“…Critical review of many of the earlier case reports of ceruminous neoplasms allow for a more accurate placement in different tumor categories [2, 8, 15, 1928]. Careful review of the remaining cases, most of which are single case reports or limited case series, further narrows the number of cases available for review (see Table 2) [4, 5, 10, 12, 14, 1618, 2932, 3866]. Ceruminous tumors are so uncommon that only the experience which can be achieved from a referral center or academic medical center would allow for an improvement in the understanding of this neoplastic category.…”

“…El diagnóstico suele ser tardío debido a la baja incidencia de tumores en esta localización y a que presentan síntomas similares a otras patologías benignas del oído. Cuando la enfermedad se halla avanzada, pueden encontrarse parálisis facial periférica, hipoacusia o adenopatías cervicofaciales 1,6,7,11,12 . La técnica de imagen utilizada para evaluar la localización, extensión ósea y a órganos vecinos es la tomografía axial computarizada (TAC), reservándose el uso de la RMN para la evaluación de lesiones de partes blandas 6,11,12 .…”

“…El diagnóstico de certeza se realiza con la confirmación histológica. Se requiere una pieza adecuada para demostrar si existe o no infiltración a cartílago, hueso, vasos sanguíneos o perineural, datos que habitualmente se objetivan mejor en la periferia del tumor 6,11,12 .…”

“…Therapie der Wahl hier ist eine radikale operative Versorgung. Dabei ist über einen langen Zeitraum eine engmaschige Verlaufskontrolle notwendig, da es auch noch Jahre nach der Entfernung zu Rezidiven kommen kann [9]. In diesen Fällen sollte eine radikale operative Versorgung mit einer anschließenden Radiatio erwogen werden [10].…”
