ABSTRACT The external auditory canal (EAC) is formed by lateral cartilaginous and medial bony part. The stenosis of EAC is narrowing of the width of the EAC, i.e. either caused by congenital or acquired causes. Myringosclerosis is a condition caused by calcification of tissues in the tympanic membrane and ossification is a special form of fibrosis due to the long-term, irreversible continued inflammation in the middle ear cleft. We are presenting rare case of idiopathic tympanic membrane ossification with generalized stenosis of EAC in 29-year-old patient. How to cite this article Verma H, Dass A, Singhal SK, Gupta N. Late Presentation of Idiopathic Tympanic Membrane Ossification with External Auditory Canal Stenosis. Int J Otorhinolaryngol Clin 2015;7(3):141-143.

Bilateral congenital mesotympanic cholesteatoma is a very rare disease. It can present differently from ordinary congenital cholesteatoma. We report a case of bilateral congenital cholesteatoma diagnosed at age of 22 years old. She presented with bilateral intermittent ear discharge since 10 years old that worsening two weeks prior to her presentation to our clinic and associated with bilateral reduced hearing. Clinically there was intact tympanic membrane with retraction of the mesotympanic area with present of mass medial to tympanic membrane. CT scan imaging showed there was soft tissue in the bilateral middle ear cavity with intact scutum and ossicles. Patient undergone canal wall down procedure and the diagnosis of congenital mesotympanic cholesteatoma was confirmed with present of cholesteatoma sac at the posterosuperior part, as opposed to anterosuperior quadrant, where the common site for congenital cholesteatoma.Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.17(2) 2018 p.307-310

Schneiderian papillomas (ISP) of the middle ear are uncommon conditions, with only 45 cases published within literature. They are locally aggressive tumours, with a high rate of recurrence and associated malignancy. We present a rare case of a 53-year-old man presenting with unilateral pulsatile tinnitus, otorrhoea, aural fullness, pruritis and hearing loss. Angiography was employed to exclude a glomus tumour and the patient underwent a modified radical mastoidectomy. Tissue samples confirmed a histological diagnosis of ISP of the middle ear. Follow-up magnetic resonanc imaging one year postoperatively showed no evidence of disease recurrence.

AbstractWe present a rare case of a transitional papilloma of the middle ear, occurring several years after excision of a similar lesion from the nose. There was no continuity between the two lesions suggesting that these tumours can be multicentric in origin.

AbstractObjective:We report an extremely rare case of congenital cholesteatoma affecting the occipital bone.Methods:We present a case report, plus a review of the world literature on similar lesions.Results:This case report describes the presentation and treatment of a congenital cholesteatoma arising in an apparently unique location within the occipital bone, with no effect on middle-ear structure or function. The different imaging characteristics of this lesion are described and illustrated. The discussion centres on the differentiation of this lesion from intradiploic epidermoid cysts, more commonly described in the neurosurgical literature. The possible methods of pathogenesis are discussed, along with treatment suggestions.Conclusion:Congenital cholesteatomas and intradiploic epidermoid cysts are indistinguishable both histologically and radiologically, and would appear to be the same disease.

Adenocarcinoma of middle ear is a rare tumor, few cases were reported in literature. Primary middle ear adenocarcinoma is locally invasive neoplasm arises from middle ear mucosa. These tumors may or may not be associated with Chronic Suppurative Otitis media. These tumors tend to have slow growth pattern and have an infrequent incidence of distant metastasis, recurrence is also a common problem. . They should be considered in the differential diagnosis of lytic lesions of the temporal bone on imaging. We reported a histologically proven case of adenocarcinoma of middle ear with intracranial and parotid extension in 24yr old female patient that was successfully managed. If managed early they have a very god prognosis with a 5-year survival of 70% has been reported for low-grade adenocarcinomas. Keywords: Adenocarcinoma, middle ear, invasive neoplasm.
