|
It is rare to find tumor of the ceruminous gland, which is a modified apocrine gland locatedwithin the skin of external auditory canal (EAC). Syringocystadenoma papilliferum (SCAP) isa benign adnexal tumor that occurs in the head and facial area in forms of infiltrative macules,papules, or keratinous nodules, but rarely in the EAC. To date, fewer than 150 case reports ofSCAP have been reported, with SCAP in the EAC being extremely rare. We report a case of51-year-old male with 2 year-history of a left EAC mass arising from the superior wall of theEAC. We performed a microscopic surgery, with the mass resected via retro-auricular approachunder general anesthesia. The histopathological examination confirmed the specimenas SCAP. There were no complications or recurrence during the 4 months follow-up period.
