Malignancy of the middle ear is rare and its incidence 0.18 cases per million people, with most common type being squamous cell carcinoma. The radiologic, surgical findings, pathology reports has not been well characterized due to low incidence. Squamous carcinoma in situ even more so. Here, we report a case 69-year-old man who developed 19 months after wide excision for situ. patient received ...

  Amoebiasis of the uterine cervix is an extremely rare entity and presentation as carcinoma cervix has only been reported once in the extensively searched English literature.
