Mastoidectomy Innovations
The objects of modern otology
surgery are removal of disease and refurbishment of hearing. Persistent drainage and recurring
infection after mastoid
surgery hallmark failure at achieving these goals. Medical management containing of meticulous aural toilette and attention to supplementary medical disorders will often yield resolution; however, a important number of patients will still require surgical revision. While intact canal wall measures have reduced the chronic difficulties associated with open cavities, they are prone to failure. Careful assessment of the disease procedure and development of a surgical approach that is both flexible and comprehensive will maximize success in revision surgery. Disease perseverance after revision should be measured in the spectrum of complications, even though at times it is closely incredible to avoid. We define the explanations for failure of mastoid procedures, common zones of retained disease, and review key concepts of revision. Forty-five patients underwent an advanced surgical process that enables complete removal of the cholesteatoma, preservation of ear
anatomy and hearing restoration. Our series was divided into two groups. The first group included those in whom this innovative procedure was the first one and the later bony canal was preserved (primary surgery). The second group included those in whom the bony wall had been detached previously during
surgery (secondary surgery).
