Abstract:
A desmoplastic fibroma is a rare entity in the temporal bone. An 86-year-old woman was seen for evaluation of ear discharge and stenosis of the ear canal with a mass involving the post-auricular region. The tumor was found to be a desmoplastic fibroma. The clinical picture, pathology, diagnosis and prognosis of the tumor are discussed.
