AB  - Congenital intratympanic membrane cholesteatoma (ITMC) is a rare type of 
      congenital cholesteatoma located within the tympanic membrane. This lesion tends 
      to increase in size over time. The development of ITMC can cause several 
      complications such as hearing impairment, dizziness, facial palsy, and 
      intracranial complications, similar to any other cholesteatoma. The treatment of 
      congenital cholesteatoma requires the removal of the lesion through surgery, 
      because disease progression induces bony destruction of the nearby tissue. Most 
      patients presenting with this cholesteatoma type are also treated with primary 
      surgical removal. However, we recently experienced a case of an ITMC that showed 
      a natural transition to an external auditory canal cholesteatoma.
