ABSTRACT
Tumor arising from the ceruminous glands of the external ear canal are very rare and can present a diagnostic dilemma because of their varied clinical and histologic manifestations. We experienced an external auditory canal mass that looked like otofuruncle but was identified as a ceruminous adenoma. A wide local excision with clear margins was made to prevent recurrences. Herein, we report this case and discuss the importance of wide excision. To our knowledge, only one pediatric case has been reported, making this case the second published report of this tumor in childhood.
