Résumé
Sebaceous neoplasms are a rare type of skin cancer that may occur in any area with sebaceous glands, including the outer third of the external auditory canal. However, documentation of the tumor originating in this location is limited to scarce case reports. In this location, malignancies can invade the temporal bone, typically requiring en bloc resection and radiation therapy. We describe a case managed with limited surgical excision based on criteria for primary squamous cell carcinoma of the external auditory canal with only close observation following surgery. Margins were free of disease following excision and histology demonstrated a favorable prognosis. The patient was disease free after a follow-up period of over 3 years postoperatively. A review of relevant literature is utilized to discuss clinical characteristics, staging, treatment, and prognosis to assist in clinical decision making for these patients.
