Primary tumours of the middle ear are much less commonly encountered in clinical practice than non neoplastic lesions. Middle ear adenocarcinoma is a very rare, locally invasive neoplasm assumed to arise from the middle ear mucosa. Because the natural course and clinical behavior of this neoplasm are far from established, the sporadic reports of such cases continue to provide basis for better understanding.
A case of low grade adenocarcinoma of the middle ear is described in details with regard to its clinical presentation, radiological findings, histopathological, immunohistochemical and ultrastructural findings. The tumour recurred four times.
中耳原发性肿瘤在临床实践中比非肿瘤性病变少见得多。中耳腺癌是一种非常罕见的局部侵袭性肿瘤,被认为起源于中耳黏膜。由于这种肿瘤的自然病程和临床行为还远未确定,因此此类病例的零星报道仍为更好地了解该肿瘤提供了依据。
详细描述了一例中耳低级别腺癌的临床特征、影像学表现、组织病理学、免疫组织化学和超微结构表现。该肿瘤复发了 4 次。
