ABSTRACT

Mastoid osteomas are very rare and defined as benign masses growing gradually in size. Temporal bone computed tomography is the examination of choice for their diagnosis and differentiation. Surgical resection is used to treat mastoid osteomas causing cosmetic deformity. Prognosis is good in cosmetic and curative aspects, and recurrences are very rare. No case of malign transformation has been reported. In this study, an adult patient who was treated because of a mastoid osteoma is presented with review of the current literature.

ÖZET

Mastoid osteomlar çok nadir görülen, yavaş büyüyen, benign tümörlerdir. Temporal kemik bilgisayarlı tomografisi tanı ve ayırıcı tanıda tercih edilen inceleme yöntemdir. Kozmetik deformiteye yol açan mastoid osteomların tedavisi cerrahidir. Kozmetik ve tedavi açısından prognozları iyi iken, rekürensleri çok nadirdir. Malign transformasyon gelişen olgu bildirilmemiştir. Bu çalışmada mastoid osteoma nedeniyle tedavi edilen yetişkin bir hasta güncel literatür bilgileri eşliğinde sunulmuştur.
