Background: The benign fibrous histiocytoma (BFH) is a mainly dermal neoplasm composed of a mixture of fibroblastic and histiocytic cells. It is usually reported as occurring on the extremity, retroperitoneum or orbit but not commonly in the other head and neck regions.Methods: A ten-year old girl presented with a right external auditory meatal mass for 6 months. Clinical examination showed a small, firm non-tender swelling on the antero-inferior part of the cartilagenous external auditory canal. An excisional biopsy was performed without complication.Results: Clinical and histopathological examinations with immunohistochemical studies were consistent with the diagnosis of BFH of the external auditory canal. There was no local recurrence to date.Conclusions: BFH is an uncommon benign neoplasm of the head and neck and none has been previously described occurring in the external auditory canal. Complete local excision is the mainstay of treatment with excellent prognosis.  DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjo.v18i1.10424  Bangladesh J Otorhinolaryngol 2012; 18(1): 77-80

Benign fibrous histiocytoma is an interesting and challenging entity even in its most usual, cutaneous presentation. Noncutaneous presentation is extremely limited, even more so for the mucosa of the head and neck area. We herein report such a case, describing the clinical characteristics of the lesion, complete diagnostic evaluation, management, and follow-up. Diagnostic histopathological challenges are specifically illustrated. A complete review of the relevant literature is also included.

Latar belakang: Schwannoma merupakan tumor jinak yang berasal dari sel Schwann. InsidenSchwannoma aurikula sangat jarang. Sebagian besar yang terjadi adalah Schwannoma vestibular.Penatalaksanaaan dengan ekstirpasi secara in toto dapat mencegah kekambuhan.Tujuan: Melaporkansatu kasus jarang, yaitu Schwannoma aurikula yang meluas ke kanalis auditorius eksternus (KAE).Kasus: Anak laki-laki usia 3 tahun datang dengan keluhan muncul benjolan pada daun telinga kiri sejak 6bulan terakhir, yang membesar perlahan hingga menutupi liang telinga. Dilakukan ekstirpasi biopsi padamassa tumor, dengan pendekatan retroaurikula. Massa dapat dilepas secara in toto. Hasil histopatologikesan Schwannoma. Enam bulan pasca operasi tidak didapatkan kekambuhan.Metode: Penelusurankepustakaan didapatkan 5 jurnal laporan kasus yang relevan.Hasil: Dari 5 kasus, seluruhnya melakukanekstirpasi massa Schwannoma secara in toto. Terdapat 2 kasus mengunakan pendekatan transmeatal, 2kasus dengan pendekatan retroaurikula, dan 1 kasus ekstirpasi langsung pada aurikula.Kesimpulan:Schwannoma aurikula merupakan kasus yang sangat jarang. Tidak ada kecenderungan usia maupun jeniskelamin tertentu. Penanganan dengan ekstirpasi yang komplit dapat mencegah kekambuhan.Kata kunci: Schwannoma aurikula, ekstirpasi, insisi retroaurikula ABSTRACTBackground: Schwannoma is a Schwann cells benign tumors. The incidence of auricularSchwannoma is rare. The most common is vestibular Schwannoma. Treatment of choice is completesurgical excision, and recurrence is rare. Purpose: Reporting a rase case of an auricular Schwannomathat spread to external auditory canals. Case: A three years old boy presented with a swelling in the leftauricular for 6 months, which was progressively increasing and spread into external auditory canals.An excisional biopsy via postauricular was performed under general anesthesia. The mass was totallyremoved. Diagnosis was reported to be Schwannoma by histopathologic examination. There was no signsof local recurrence during a 6 months of follow-up period. Method: Search literatures for evidence found5 case report journals were relevant to our clinical question. Result: From the 5 journals, all of themopted to do total excisional removal, 2 cases by transmeatal incision, 2 cases by postauricular incision,and 1 case by direct incision of the auricular mass. Conclusion: Auricular schwannoma is a rare case.Previous case reports showed no sufficient relevance on the age and sex tendency to the occurence ofauricular Schwannoma. A complete extirpation can prevent recurrence.Key words: Auricular schwannoma, extirpation, postroauricular incision

AbstractLeiomyosarcoma is a malignant tumour of smooth muscle origin. These tumours are rarely encountered in the head and neck region. A case of leiomyosarcoma of the auricle is presented. There are two cases of external auditory canal leiomyosarcoma in the literature. To our knowledge the present case is the first example of leiomyosarcoma of the auricle.

Function preserving management of a dominant thumb metacarpal chondrosarcoma is reported, with a literature review for this uncommon neoplasm. Wide local excision of the metacarpal followed by temporary silicone block interposition and definitive iliac crest bone grafting was performed. A persistent wound defect was managed by a radial artery forearm flap. The functional result was acceptable. In the literature, there were seven cases of thumb metacarpal chondrosarcoma reported; two were treated by ray amputation, and the other five were treated by excision of the metacarpal. Three of those five had bone graft and the other two had simple resection. Of these seven cases, three had local recurrence and one a distant metastasis.

Survival Outcome

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) usually presents in the extremities or retroperitoneum. Cases involving the kidney are rare and portend a poor prognosis. Although radical nephrectomy is the most beneficial curative choice for this neoplasm, patients are often treated with adjuvant chemotherapy due to high risk of local recurrence and distant metastases. We describe a case of a 68-year-old woman affected by MFH, treated with both nephrectomy and radiotherapy without systemic therapy showing an unexpected twenty-four-month postsurgery survival outcome.
