Fibrous dysplasia of the temporal bone is a very unusual condition and its association with an abnormal lymph node has not been previously reported. Although it is benign condition causing conductive deafness, cholesteatoma may develop insidiously as illustrated by this case. We recommend regular long term follow up and surgical exploration if a changing clinical picture suggests the possibility of complications.
