A ceruminous adenoma is a benign glandular neoplasm which arises from the ceruminous glands located within the external auditory canal. These glands are found within the outer one third to one half of the external auditory canal, more common along the posterior surface; therefore, the tumor develops within a very specific location. [2] [3] [4]
Benign tumors take several years to develop and are more difficult to detect due to their freely movable nature. [6] The only indicator of benign tumors is self-trauma of a form called lick granuloma or "boredom sores", [7] which can be caused by excessive licking by the cat. [6] This is a sign that the cat is suffering from anxiety. [8] [9]
Ceruminous adenocarcinoma is a malignant neoplasm derived from ceruminous glands of the external auditory canal.This tumor is rare, with several names used in the past. [3] [4] Synonyms have included cylindroma, ceruminoma, ceruminous adenocarcinoma, not otherwise specified (NOS), ceruminous adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC), [1] [2] and ceruminous mucoepidermoid carcinoma.
The symptoms depend on the tumor's location and degree of invasion. For example, tumors in the gastrointestinal tract may cause vomiting, diarrhea, or weight loss. Tumors in the mouth may cause bad breath, difficulty swallowing, or lack of appetite. Tumors arising in the peripheral nerves may cause pain, lameness, or neurological symptoms.
A benign tumor is a mass of cells that does not invade neighboring tissue or metastasize (spread throughout the body). Compared to malignant (cancerous) tumors, benign tumors generally have a slower growth rate. Benign tumors have relatively well differentiated cells.

The only reliable way to determine whether a soft-tissue tumor is benign or malignant is through a biopsy. The two methods for acquisition of tumor tissue for cytopathological analysis are: Needle aspiration biopsy, via needle; Surgically, via an incision made into the tumor; A pathologist examines the tissue under a microscope.
