Born in the Ear Canal: Tick Larva on the Eardrum
Öz: We report the case of a 54-year-old woman who presented to the ear, nose, and throat (ENT)
outpatient clinic with hearing loss, tinnitus, and fullness in her right ear. In the first clinical
examination, a pouch hanging in the anterior upper quadrant was detected in the tympanic
membrane of the right ear. A tick larva was found in the cyctic lesion located on the tympanic
membrane. Our case was unique due to this unexpected diagnosis
