Abstract

An osteoma of the external auditory canal(EAC) is an uncommon benign tumor. If a canal obstruction occurs, ear fullness or conductive hearing loss can arise. But, the association of an osteoma with a cholesteatoma is ex-tremely rare. Therefore, we report a case of a 35-year-old female patient with osteoma of temporal bone that was complicated with EAC cholesteatoma.
