| dc.description.abstract | Piercing is a type of jewelry performed by piercing the skin, underlying fat layer or cartilage.As the use of body piercings became widespread, the number of complications caused by infections, injuries and jewelry has also increased.The aim of this case report was to reveal the clinical features and treatment of our patient who had a mass in the ear with a related piercing history. A 20-year-old female patient, applied to us with her complaints, which started with redness and swelling in the upper part of the right auricle, about 1 year ago, but then gradually grew. On physical examination, there was a painless mass, 0.7x0.5 cm in size in the upper helix of the right auricle, with a smooth surface, slightly darker than the skin, and a minimally eroded area attached to the piercing. The patient had a history of frequent change and use of piercings to the superior helix of the right auricle where the mass was found. An excisional biopsy was performed under local anesthesia. Pathological findings were reported as benign fibroepithelial polyps (FEP). According to our English literature research, no FEP manifested in the auricle and other parts of the body associated with piercing has been reported so far. | en_US |
