Mixed hemangioma of the external auditory canal and the tympanic membrane in a young woman: A case report

Hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors frequently located in the head and neck area, but rarely encountered in the ear, often originally misdiagnosed due to their rarity and absence of specific clinical manifestations. We report the second case of a mixed hemangioma involving the external auditory canal in literature to date. Hemangiomas of the external auditory canal are rarely described clinical entities. High clinical suspicion is required in patients presenting with chronic ear symptoms, as surgical excision is the treatment of choice, leading to their resolution.
