Familial ossicular malformations: case report and review of literature.

Familial middle ear ossicular anomalies are rare. We report on a daughter and her mother with congenital conductive hearing loss. Tympanotomy disclosed hypoplasia of long crus of incus whose tip had been replaced with a fibrous strand. A review suggests that middle ear ossicular anomalies may be inherited as autosomal dominant traits. Most individuals were bilaterally affected. Most isolated cases were affected unilaterally.

Chondrosarcoma arising in the nasal septum: a case report.

A rare case of chondrosarcoma arising in the nasal septum, which appeared in an eighty-year-old female, was reported. The tumor extended bilaterally in the nasal cavity and to the skull base. Radiation therapy was performed for the patient, considering of her age. Histological findings including electron micrograph were shown, and pertinent literatures were reviewed to discuss clinicopathological features of the tumor.
