title: [Cystic adenoidal carcinoma of the external ear].
abstract: Tumors of the ceruminous glands can affect the auricula and periauricular skin and should be included in the differential diagnosis of lesions of these regions. Correct management of these tumors depends on precise histopathologic classification and diagnosis of their extension. We report a case of cystic adenoid carcinoma of the external auditory canal. Signs and symptoms, histopathology, and treatment of these lesions as reported in the literature are reviewed.
