The angiomyoma or vascular leiomyoma is an uncommon type of leiomyoma composed of smooth muscle cells and vascular endothelium. The tumor occurs mostly in the lower extremities as a slowly growing, firm and mobile mass, occasionally accompanied by pain. There are few cases of auricular angiomyoma reported in the literature; however, recently, we experienced a case of a 18-year-old man with protruding auricular mass. We performed a surgical excision and the final pathological result confirmed to angiomyoma. We report this case with a review of the related literatures.

According to the classification of World Health Organization, papillary squamous cell carcinoma is a variant of squamous cell carcinoma. This is a malignancy rarely found in the upper aerodigestive tract, especially in the sinonasal tract. We experienced a case, in which a 50-year-old man had papillary squamous cell carcinoma on his right nasal cavity, accompanied with inverted papilloma and fungiform papilloma. They were resected via endoscopic and Caldwell-Luc's approach. After the operation, the patient was treated with radiotherapy for 7 weeks, and has been disease-free for two years. We present the clinical characteristics, pathology, treatment, and prognosis of the tumor with a review of the literature.
