Abstract: Pleomorphic adenoma arising in the external auditory canal is rare. We report the case of a 38-year-old man. To better grasp the clinical features and natural history of this uncommon tumour, we also reviewed the worldwide literature and found 24 similar cases, which we analysed together with our own.
