Tubular apocrine adenoma with syringocystadenoma papilliferum arising from the external auditory canal.
Tubular apocrine adenoma (TAA) is a very rare sweat gland tumour. Comprehensive review of the literature reveals that TAA in the external auditory canal (EAC) has not yet been reported. We report a case of TAA in the EAC, together with characteristic histopathological findings.
