ABSTRACT
Objective: To describe the clinical-epidemiological behavior and therapeutic management
of the temporal bone malignancies in patients treated at the National Institute of
Oncologia and Radiobiology, Cuba.
Material and Method: A descriptive, longitudinal, retrospective study was performed
from January, 2002 to December, 2012. The variables such as: age, sex, skin
color, initial symptom, histology, initial location, extension, clinical stage, surgical
technique, therapeutic modality, surgical complications and survival at 60 months were
developed using descriptive statistic.
Results: There were included 28 clinical charts. The group of age of 55-67 years
was the most representative (35.6%). The 71.4% were males and the 89.1% were
Caucasian. The 53.6% presented with chronic otorrhea. The squamous cell carcinoma
prevailed with 67.8%. The initial location was the external auditory canal with 82.1%
and confined to the origin site in 53.6%. The lateral temporal bone resection was the
mainly practiced treatment with 28.5% and surgery plus radiotherapy in 35.6%. The
infection of the surgical wound was seen in 7.1% of the cases and the 5 years overall
survival was of 77.8%.
Conclusions: The temporal bone malignancies were more frequent between sixthseventh
decade in Caucasian males. Otorrea was the main symptom, prevailing the
squamous cell carcinoma located at the external auditory canal and confined to the
origin site. Five years overall survival was of 77.8%.
