Abstract
Auricle cancers are relatively uncommon head and neck neoplasm and most of them are squamous cell carcinoma. Metastatic auricle cancer is extremely rare; metastases from internal organ have not been reported so far. We recently experienced a case of metastatic auricle cancer from adenocarcinoma of stomach. Seventy years old man who had undergone gastrectomy for stomach cancer 10 years ago visited our hospital complaining painless auricle mass. Biopsy of the auricle mass revealed a metastatic adenocarcinoma that is same as that of the stomach cancer. Patient underwent excision of auricle mass and adjuvant chemotherapy. Here we report this case with the review of related literatures. � Korean J Otorhinolaryngol-Head Neck Surg 2014;57(3):178-81 Key WordsZZAdenocarcinoma ㆍAuricle ㆍMetastasis ㆍStomach cancer.
