Sebaceoma is a benign cutaneous neoplasm that typically presents as a nodule or plaque on the face or scalp. Sebaceomas may be associated with the Muir-Torre syndrome, in which they may be multiple and associated with other sebaceous neoplasms of the skin and multiple adenomatous polyps. We present the case of a young man affected by a sebaceoma of the external auditory canal (EAC). To our knowledge, this is the third reported case of sebaceoma localized in the ear canal. The differential diagnosis and clinical implications are also discussed.

Abstract
Sebaceoma is a benign cutaneous neoplasm that typically presents as a nodule or plaque on the face or scalp. Sebaceomas may be associated with the Muir-Torre syndrome, in which they may be multiple and associated with other sebaceous neoplasms of the skin and multiple adenomatous polyps. We present the case of a young man affected by a sebaceoma of the external auditory canal (EAC). To our knowledge, this is the third reported case of sebaceoma localized in the ear canal. The differential diagnosis and clinical implications are also discussed.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
