A case of squamous cell carcinoma of the auricule was reported.This tumor appeared in the upper helix one year after taking burn with fire.It was surgically resected and irradiated with cobalt.No sign of recurrence or metastasis is detected one year postoperatively at present time.Thirty six cases of auricular cancer reported in Japan were reviewed. Approximately seventy percent of this cancer were found in male. Fifty percent of this tumor appeared at the helix, and twenty five percent at the ear lobule.Although it was not always possible to find a cause for this cancer, sun burn might play a part of the role in causing auricular cancer, since the white races were more frequently involved in this condition than the yellow or negro, who were protected to the sun beam by the dense skin pigment.
