-Abstract-
The clinical manifestations of leukemic patients who have temporal bone infiltration are acute mastoiditis,
hearing impairment, tinnitus, dizziness, otorrhea, retro-auricular mass and facial nerve palsy. Otologic
manifestations of leukemic patients have also been reported several times. However, reports about
temporal bone infiltration by leukemic cells after complete remission have been rare, and there have not
yet been any reports about both temporal bones infiltration that has been confirmed by mastoid biopsy
after remission. We recently experienced a case of recurring acute myelogenous leukemia in both temporal
bones after a complete remission and report it with a review of the literature.
