Fifty three cases of congenital preauricular sinus or fistula those were extirpated surgically during past 5 years(March, 1990 to Feb, 1995) were retrospectively studied for the clinical and histopathologic findings and showed the following
results.
1) The male to female ration was 1: 1.5.
2) Familial incidence was found in 7 cases(13.2%).
3) The sinuses were found bilaterally in 6 patients(11.3%) and unilaterally in 47 patients(88.7%).
4) External openings were found at the anterior margin of the ascending limb of the helix in all cases(100%).
5) there were no assiciated anomalies and diseases except for 4cases(7.5%) of chronic otitis media.
