An extensive squamous cell carcinoma of the auricle: From curative to reconstructive treatment. A case report.
International Journal of Surgery Case Reports 2022 July 20
Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the auricle is a rare and aggressive entity of cell carcinomas. It is mostly identified in older males with history of sun exposure. After histopathological confirmation, the initial assessment which consists of clinical and radiological evaluation will determine the therapeutic strategy. We report the case of a neglected SCC of the left pinna with parotid and temporo-mandibular infiltration. After surgical resection, the patient underwent a two staged reconstructive surgery. This was followed later on with radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The evolution was favourable for our patient during an 18 months follow-up. This case report underlines the importance of both curative and reconstructive surgery in successfully treating locally advanced tumors of the temporal bone.
