Özet:

Neurofibromas are relatively common tumours of the nervous system, but only a few cases involving the external ear have been reported. We are reporting here a case of a 7-year-old girl with neurofibroma of the external ear with no history of neurofibromatosis . The primary complaint was conductive hearing loss and cosmetic deformity. There was complete occlusion of the external auditory canal. The swelling was excised. Surgery resulted in an excellent functional and cosmetic outcome. The aim of this study is to analyze the clinical features of isolated neurofibroma of the external ear canal unassociated with neurofibromatosis type 1(NF1) in the light of the literature.
