    (Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2014) Ulkumen, Burak; Kaplan, Yunus; Kiroglu, Ahmet Faruk; Bayram, Irfan
    Inverted papilloma of middle ear is a very rare clinical entity. It has been reported only in the adult population. We report a middle ear inverted papilloma in an 11-year-old male. To the best of our knowledge it is the first pediatric inverted papilloma of middle ear. The patient had a history of chronic suppurative otitis media and the lesion was found during preoperative evaluation for a tympanoplasty procedure. Total excision of the lesion and a tympanoplasty operation was accomplished. We reviewed the middle ear inverted papilloma cases regarding the age distribution, pathophysiology, treatment and prognosis. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
