Abstract

|
|
We present a case report of primary middle ear lipoma diagnosed in right ear of a 25-month-old girl with right otitis media. We identified injection and retraction at right ear drum. Impedance tympanometry of right ear was type B and temporal bone CT was suggestive of a congenital cholesteatoma. During the tympanoplasty, a mass of tissue obstructing the eustachian tube orifice was noted in the middle ear. We have treated a case of a lipoma that originated from the middle ear; only 5 such cases have been reported worldwide.
