  • Title: [Hernia of the external ear canal of uncommon origin].
    Author: Llorente Arenas EM, Fraile Rodrigo J, Naya Gálvez MJ, Marín Garrido C, Carmen Sampériz L, Martínez Berganza R, Damborenea Tajada J.
    Journal: Acta Otorrinolaringol Esp; 2000; 51(1):68-70. PubMed ID: 10799936.
    Abstract:
    The temporo-mandibular joint is directly related to the anterior wall of the external ear canal. Therefore, defects in this wall may lead to herniation of the soft tissues of the temporo-mandibular joint into the external ear canal. Such herniation usually is secondary to external injuries, iatrogenic trauma, neoplasms, and so on, but it may also be congenital. We report a well-documented case of temporo-mandibular joint herniation into the external ear canal of probable congenital origin.
