title: [Metastasis of cancer of the external ear].
abstract: Follow-up of 103 patients with squamous cell carcinomas of the auricula showed that 20 of them developed regional lymph node metastases. The effect of size, site and certain histological parameters on the occurrence of metastases was assessed. The incidence of metastases correlated with increasing size of the tumour.
