A Novel Decellularized Fibrocartilage Graft Promotes Tympanic Membrane Repair. [PDF]
An off‐the‐shelf decellularized porcine meniscus fibrocartilage graft (MEND) is engineered for pediatric tympanoplasty. Featuring a microchannel architecture that promotes host cell invasion, MEND rapidly closes tympanic membrane perforations and fully remodels in vivo, outperforming fascia and matching cartilage grafts while avoiding donor‐site ...

Pediatric Cholesteatoma Presenting as Persistent Otorrhea: A Case of Delayed Diagnosis Across Multiple ENT Specialists. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Pediatric cholesteatoma is an aggressive but uncommon middle ear condition characterized by keratinizing squamous epithelium that can progressively erode adjacent structures. It is associated with faster bone destruction and higher recurrence rates in children than adults, and its symptoms often resemble chronic otitis media, which may delay ...

Hearing Preservation After Segmental Semicircular Canal Destruction: A Report of Two Rare Cases. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Semicircular canal fistulas are a complication of cholesteatomatous otitis media. In extremely rare cases, extensive destruction of the bony labyrinth may result in loss of approximately one‐third of the semicircular canal arc, often with wide exposure and partial injury to the membranous labyrinth, thereby increasing the risk of profound ...
