Primary adenomatous neoplasm of the middle ear.

Adenomatous lesions of the temporal bone are seldom encountered in clinical practice. Four cases of primary adenocarcinoma of the middle ear are reported. All four patients presented with a mass behind an intact tympanic membrane. Two of the four patients had received radiation to the head and neck area 10 or more years prior to their developing adenocarcinoma of the middle ear space. Although this tumor is locally invasive, it does not appear to be highly aggressive and can be treated by local excision, i.e., mastoidectomy with tympanoplasty.

[Radiation therapy of malignant neoplasms of the middle ear after nonradical surgical interventions].

The paper is concerned with the short- and long-term results of gamma-beam therapy and chemo- and radiotherapy in 109 patients with malignant middle ear tumors after nonradical surgical interventions. A single focal dose was 2-2.5 Gy, a summary dose varied within 60-80 Gy with relation to the degree of dissemination, growth type and tumor histological structure. A 3-year survival rate was 41.1%, a 5-year survival rate was 21%.

Temporal bone involvement by prostatic adenocarcinoma: report of two cases and review of the literature.

Although axial bone and cranial metastases are common in patients with prostatic carcinoma, temporal bone involvement is rare. We report 2 cases of prostatic adenocarcinoma with temporal bone metastasis and review the relevant literature. One case had a 3-year history of a prostatic carcinoma, whereas in the second case the temporal bone metastasis was the initial presentation. Awareness of the possibility of temporal bone involvement by prostate carcinoma and application of immunohistochemical studies will help to arrive at the correct diagnosis.
