Etiopathogenesis of cholesteatoma
European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2004Cholesteatoma 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.

The Pathophysiology of Cholesteatoma [PDF]
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 ...

Cholesteatoma in children is generally considered to be more aggressive and destructive than in adults. Each otologic surgeon has experienced widely extended cholesteatomas in children with large pneumatized mastoid processes. In this paper, we want to present clinical and experimental observations which imply that the destructive potential in children

AbstractOf 325 previously untreated cholesteatomas, 109 were found to be in children 13 years old and younger—however, these 109 ears were not found to consist of one clinical entity. Sixty-three of the 109 ears presented a marginal perforation or a retraction pocket, at the level of Shrapnell's membrane or beyond the posterosuperior quadrant.

The 65 cholesteatomas operated on in children showed a more expansive and rapid growth than those in adults. In one fifth of the cases cholesteatoma filled the whole air-cell area, which was wide in half of the children. Fifty-two ears of these children had an attic or a posterosuperior perforation.

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1989
Aural cholesteatomas consist of accumulations of desquamating keratinized epithelium within the middle ear or other pneumatized portion of the temporal bone. Cholesteatomas may be classified according to presumed etiology as congenital or acquired. The theoretical mechanisms of the pathogenesis of the two types are discussed.

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, 1980The 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

AbstractThe surgical management of cholesteatoma in children reMayns a controversial subject. Many authors hold that the disease itself is more aggressive than that seen in adults. Furthermore, there appears to be a consensus that intact canal wall procedures, if used at all, should be reserved for adults only.
