Bilateral radiation-induced squamous cell carcinomas of the external auditory canal 30 years after radiotherapy for a pituitary adenoma: a case report.

After radiotherapy, screening programs should be developed since early detection improves salvage treatment of these secondary and often morbid tumors.
