    Osteomas occur in all parts of the temporal bone, including the mastoid, squamous, middle
    ear, styloid process, internal auditory canal and external auditory canal (EAC). The EAC has
    been reported to be the most common site, followed by the mastoid and squamous parts.
    Diagnosis is made based on history, clinical examination and radiological findings. Computed
    tomography reveals a pedunculated hyperdense mass that usually arises from the
    tympanosquamous suture. Surgical removal of EAC osteomas can be achieved using the
    endaural or postauricular approaches. It can be performed with a drill or osteotome, either
    endoscopically or by using microscopy. This report presents two patients with EAC osteomas
    who underwent excision under microscopy using the endaural approach. Surgery is the gold
    standard treatment, while close observation may be considered in asymptomatic patients.
