Epidermoid cyst, a tumorlike lesion, is a rare benign testicular tumor with typical, distinctive ultrasonographic appearance. When the preoperative features are highly suggestive of epidermoid cyst, testicular sparing surgery after strict oncologic guidelines is warranted.

Background: Canine aural cholesteatoma (more appropriately named tympanokeratoma) is an epidermoid cyst whose aetiopathogenesis remains poorly recognised in veterinary medicine. There are a few reports published, possibly because it may be underdiagnosed.
Objectives: To characterise the clinical aspects of dogs with tympanokeratoma, to describe the otoendoscopic, advanced imaging and histopathological findings of tympanokeratoma and to report the best approach to diagnose canine auricular tympanokeratoma in a retrospective study.
