  • Title: Fibrous dysplasia of the temporal bone and maxillofacial region associated with cholesteatoma of the middle ear.
    Author: Djerić D, Stefanović P.
    Journal: Auris Nasus Larynx; 1999 Jan; 26(1):79-81. PubMed ID: 10077260.
    Abstract:
    Fibrous dysplasia of the temporal bone is a rare disease which may lead to progressive stenosis of the external auditory canal and the development of cholesteatoma. We present a case in which minimal symptoms were present despite a massive temporal bone fibrous dysplasia. Cholesteatoma resulted most probably secondary to external auditory canal stenosis. Retroauricular fistula developed as a result of destructive effect of cholesteatoma, that influenced previous diagnosis and treatment of this clinically silent disease.
