“…We found only 17 reported cases of primary temporal bone lymphoma in the English and Japanese literature, including the cases of primary lymphoma of the middle ear (13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28) (13,15,20,23 …”

“…The most prominent symptoms are conductive-type hearing loss due to tubal dysfunction and secondary otitis media, while other manifestations include otalgia, vertigo, sensorineural hearing loss, facial palsy, trigeminal neuralgia, and a post-auricular mass [5,8,16]. In our case the occurrence of bilateral chronic otitis media was most unusual.…”

“…To our knowledge only 24 metastatic and 2 primary cases have been reported in the English-language literature and only 1 case was found in the pediatric age group [5,[8][9][10][11]16]. However, Paparella and Elfiky [11] noted that tumor cell invasion in the temporal bone occurred more commonly than was clinically obvious.…”

Involvement of the temporal bone in patients with malignant lymphomas is very rare. Most of the reported cases have been clinically asymptomatic and were diagnosed only by post-mortem examinations. We present a nasal, paranasal, nasopharyngeal lymphoma that occurred in a 12-year-old child and also involved the temporal bone. Clinical presentation began with bilateral chronic otitis media. Histopathologically, tumor was found to be an angiocentric lymphoma of B-cell origin. Association with Epstein-Barr virus could not be demonstrated. Despite combination chemotherapy (with cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doksorubicine, prednisolone, L-asparaginase, cytosine arabinoside, metotraxate) and radiotherapy (to 40 Gy), disease progressed locally as well as to cervical lymph nodes and the lungs.

“…Facial nerve paralysis has been reported in 30-60 per cent of temporal bone malignancies and tends to follow hearing loss and symptoms of middle ear infection. 9 It is important to consider further investigation in apparent middle-ear infection that is not resolving with conventional treatment. Steroid treatment may mask early symptoms of lymphoma.…”
