Abstract
Aural Polyps are usually inflammatory in nature however they may rarely be a manifestation of a more severe disease. Aural Polyps that are resistant to conservative management point towards inflammatory polyp with underlying chronic otitis media.Rarely it may be due to foreign body or neoplastic lesions. We present a case of foreign body in external auditory canal masquerading as a middle ear polyp.
