Osteoma of External Auditory Canal

Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1

Abstract

Abstract: Osteoma is a benign, slow growing tumour which can arise from various sites in the Temporal bone. Osteomas are benign tumour frequently found in the Fronto-Ethmoid region. In the Temporal bone, External Auditory Canal is the pre-dominant location. Osteomas of the EAC are considered clinically to be discrete, pedunculated lesions arising from the Tympano-Squamous suture. Osteomas of the EAC should be differentiated from Exostosis as they produce the same clinical picture.
