Myxoid neurofibroma is benign tumours of perineural cell
origin that arise from elements in the peripheral nervous
system. We report a case of a 60-year-old female patient
presented with history of right ear mass which was slowly
growing. Her primary complaint was cosmetic deformity but
hearing loss was also present. The mass was excised and
histologically revealed a myxoid neurofibroma. To the
authors’ knowledge, this is the first time that a myxoid
neurofibroma arising from external auditory canal is
reported. It should be included in the differential diagnosis
of a mass originating from this location.
