The patient had a single, centrally ulcerated nodule with an indurated border on the superior helical rim of the left ear. The histopathologic finding showed a squamous cell carcinoma infiltrating der mis as multiple gland-like structures. The wall of gland-like structure was composed of one to several cell layers and the lumen was filled with dyskeratotic, acantholytic cells.
