Abstract
Superficial angiomyxomas are rare tumours and multiple tumours occurring in the external ear are invariably
associated with Carney’s complex. In the present study, a solitary superficial angiomyxoma was found in a 20year
old lady; and there was no evidence of any of the components of Carney’s complex at the time of presentation or at
the end of 2 years of follow-up, after the surgical excision of the tumour.
Key words: Solitary, Superficial angiomyxoma
