Seborrheic keratosis is a common and benign cutaneous lesion occurring on
the trunk, extremities, and head and neck of the elderly. It is rarely seen
in the external auditory canal. We present a case of seborrheic keratosis in
the external auditory canal of a one-year-old child. The patient was treated
successfully with surgical excision.
