抄録

<p>A 56-year-old man visited our hospital with the chief complaint of facial palsy. Although a mass was detected in his right middle ear, he refused to undergo further examination and failed to return for follow-up. When he revisited the hospital 2 years later due to right otalgia, a tumor invading the skull was detected. Because the patient did not wish to undergo surgery, chemoradiotherapy was administered, which resulted in a reduction of the tumor volume. After another 2 years, the tumor regrew and the facial palsy became more severe. Chemotherapy was administered again; however, it was less effective this time, and the tumor gradually became larger and gave rise to multiple metastases in the lung, liver, and bone.</p><p>Middle ear carcinoids are relatively rare, and only a few cases of this condition presenting with facial palsy have been reported. These carcinoids are generally considered to be slow-growing, and often follow a favorable course. However, our patient did not wish to receive standard care, and ultimately developed multiple metastases, with an unfortunate outcome.</p>
