Congenital Cholesteatoma

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1978
Congenital cholesteatoma of the temporal bone may be encountered by the otologist in the cerebellopontine angle, petrous bone, or middle ear cleft; the latter occurrence seems most likely. The etiology, epidemiologic factors, location of intracranial occurrence, clinical features, methods of diagnosis, differential diagnosis, gross and microscopic ...

Cholesterol and Cholesteatoma

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1983
This is a histological and biochemical study of cholesterol in the middle ear in various chronic otitis media syndromes of 22 cholesteatomatous temporal bones and 52 bioptic specimens. Only three of the temporal bones and 11 surgical specimens showed cholesterol crystals, all of which were in the granulation tissue surrounding the cholesteatoma and ...

The Science of Cholesteatoma

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America
Cholesteatoma is a potential end-stage outcome of chronic ear infections that can result in the destruction of temporal bone structures with potential resultant hearing loss, vertigo, and intracranial infectious complications. There is currently no treatment apart from surgery for this condition, and despite years of study, the histopathogenesis of ...

Etiopathogenesis of cholesteatoma

European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2004
Cholesteatoma is a destructive lesion of the temporal bone that gradually expands and causes complications by erosion of the adjacent bony structures. Bone resorption can result in destruction of the ossicular chain and otic capsule with consecutive hearing loss, vestibular dysfunction, facial paralysis and intracranial complications.

Eradication of cholesteatoma

Clinical Otolaryngology, 1978
Cholesteatoma is, among the lesions appearing in chronic otitis media, the one creating most problems. We have selected 8 clinical situations, the most significant in our practice. After a short description of each, we expose our attitudes, past and present, in regard to each. Whether to use open or close techniques seems to be today's dilemma.

The radiology of cholesteatoma

Clinical Radiology, 1980
The diagnosis of most cholesteatomas of the middle ear is made by direct examination of a perforation in the eardrum, and the only radiological investigation necessary for these patients is a set of plain petro-mastoid views. Of these the lateral with caudal tilt of the tube is the most useful, since it demonstrates the extent of pneumatisation and the

Congenital Cholesteatoma

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America
Congenital cholesteatoma is a cyst of keratinizing squamous cell epithelium in the setting of an intact tympanic membrane, in a patient without a history of otorrhea, tympanic membrane perforation, or otologic surgery.

Complications of Cholesteatoma

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America
Complications of cholesteatoma result from characteristic inflammatory and resorptive processes that erode the structures of the middle and inner ear with potential to spread locally. Common intratemporal complications include hearing loss, facial nerve palsy, labyrinthine fistula, and dysgeusia.

The Pathophysiology of Cholesteatoma

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2006
The pathogenesis of middle ear cholesteatoma continues to be highly debated. In recent years, there has been a substantial improvement in the understanding of the pathophysiology of this disease. This chapter provides a summary of the history and evolution of cholesteatoma and a review of the recent literature that pertains to the pathophysiology of ...
