title: Two Cases of Angioleiomyoma of the Auricle.
abstract: Angioleiomyoma is a benign tumor originating from the muscularis layer of blood vessel walls. It usually occurs in extremities, and the auricle is not a frequent site for the development of this tumor. We present two cases of auricular angioleiomyoma diagnosed after pathological examination along with a review of literature.
