Abstract

External Auditory canal cholesteatoma (EACC) is a rare lesion, with cholesteatoma more commonly occurring in the middle ear. We experienced three cases of EACC which required surgical removal. The sequestrated necrotic bone was also removed, and canaloplasty using free grafts of auricular conchal cartilage and temporal fascia was successively performed. The clinical findings of our EACC cases, and the pathology, etiology and treatment of EACC are discussed.
