Abstract

The head and neck is an extremely common site for cutaneous malignancies, with 85% of all basal cell carcinomas (BCC), 70% of cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (SCC), and 30% of melanomas located here. Exposure to ultraviolet radiation is the most important risk factor. Various histologic subtypes exist and these influence subsequent management and prognosis. Treatment options vary from wide local excision or sentinel lymph node biopsy to cervical lymphadenectomy, chemotherapy, and radiation. The temporal bone is one of eight bones that form the cranium. Temporal bone malignancies overlap considerably with cutaneous malignancies-with BCC, SCC, and melanoma making up a considerable portion-but also include unique entities such as rhabdomyosarcoma, adenocarcinoma, lymphoma, and metastasis or direct invasion from malignancies originating from other primary sites.
