Objective To explore the treatment strategy for auricular malignant neoplasms. Methods Clinical data of 12 cases with auricular malignant neoplasms treated from March 2014 to December 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. The pathological type included squamous cell carcinoma (n=6) and adenoid cystic carcinoma (n=6). According to the University of Pittsburgh-modified TNM staging system, 10 newly diagnosed patients included one patient at T1 stage, 3 at T3 stage and 6 at T4 stage. All patients underwent surgery with postoperative radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy in 8 of them. Surgical approaches included lateral temporal bone resection (n=1), subtotal temporal bone resection (n=10), and lateral skull base tumor resection via infratemporal fossa type B approach (n=1). Life table method was used to calculate the survival rate, and Log-rank test to compare the survival difference. Results Follow-up of period ranged from 8 to 53 months revealed that the 3-year overall survival rate was 73% and the positive margin (P=0.033) was associated with poor prognosis. Conclusions The incidence of auricular malignant neoplasm is low with insidious onset. Surgical resection combined with postoperative radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy may be an effective comprehensive treatment strategy.
