Abstract
A chondroma is a benign tumor which commonly occurs at many sites in the body, but which has only been occasionally reported as occurring in the external auditory canal. We experienceda case of a chondroma of the external auditory canal. The patient was a two year-old female who presented with a white tumor in the anterior wall of the left external auditory canal, but with no symptoms relevant to this tumor. The tumor was removed by an operation under general anesthesia, and it was diagnosed as a chondroma histologically. There has been neither a recurrence nor any symptoms since the operation.
