We observed 50 patients (22 males and 28 females) with ear tumors from 1977 to the present. Two patients were younger than 20 years old, 8 patients were 21 to 30 years old, 13 patients were 31 to 40, 12 patients were 41 to 50, 6 patients were 51 to 60, and 9 patients were older than 61. Tumors and tumor-like masses of covering epithelium (19) and mesenchyme (16) were the most common, followed by nevi (9). Predominantly all of them were located in the auricle and the membranous part of the external auditory canal.
