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

Evaluation of cholesteatoma depends on clinical history and examination, with microscope and/or endoscope. A history of hearing loss with a chronic draining ear, refractory to ototopical medication, raises suspicion for cholesteatoma. Symptoms of Eustachian tube dysfunction or prior ear surgery including ear tubes should be elicited.

The Pathophysiology of Cholesteatoma
Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2006The 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 falls into two main categories: congenital and acquired. Though they present in different ways, both are potentially destructive lesions that are managed surgically. The goals of treatment are to eradicate keratinizing squamous epithelium from the temporal bone and to preserve or restore hearing.

AbstractManuscripts reporting results of surgery for chronic otitis media would be more meaningful if standardized nomenclature were used in describing the type of surgery performed and if standardized classifications were used for the disease process. Standardized nomenclature for surgery type and classifications for chronic otitis media exist.

Although the effective control of acute otitis media has reduced the number of cases of acute coalescent mastoiditis, the incidence of chronic mastoiditis caused by cholesteatoma has not been decreased with antibiotic usage. Surgery is required for management. This article outlines preoperative management of patients with cholesteatoma and the approach

Cholesteatoma in children is a particularly difficult disorder because of the special developmental issues unique to the age group and the long-term follow-up implications of surgical changes to the ear. The two basic controversies are canal-wall-up versus canal-wall-down surgery, and staged versus single-stage surgery.

Acquired cholesteatoma is a disease of the posterior superior part of the middle ear cleft that may arise from the external epithelium of the tympanic membrane. Three distinct epithelial zones of differing thicknesses characterize the development of this latter epithelium, and the thickness differences and their distribution in the eardrum and deep ...

The special kind of keratoma found in the temporal bone, which has been called cholesteatoma by our otologic forefathers, was an unsolved problem in Virchow's time. It still is. I feel that a careful scrutiny of some classic words concerning cholesteatoma is in order.
