The first three priorities in surgery for chronic otitis media are (1) the elimination of progressive disease to produce a safe and dry ear, (2) modification of the anatomy of the tympanomastoid compartment to prevent recurrent disease, and (3) reconstruction of the hearing mechanism.

Results of revision mastoidectomy

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 2009
Successful canal wall down (CWD) mastoidectomy requires removal of all diseased air cells, lowering of the facial ridge to the mastoid segment of the facial nerve, complete removal of the lateral epitympanic wall, and amputation of the mastoid tip.

MODIFIED RADICAL MASTOIDECTOMY: THE INDICATIONS AND THE TECHNIC: (Semiradical Mastoidectomy, Modifed Tympanomastoidectomy, Heath Mastoidectomy, Bondy Mastoidectomy)

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1946
IN THE discussion of the modified radical mastoidectomy I should like to say that I subscribe in a large part to the ideas expressed by Wittmaack in his discourse on pneumatization of the temporal bone. Pneumatization of the temporal bone begins soon after birth, usually within the first twelve months, and is almost completed by the fourth or fifth ...

Disappointment with the long-term results of closed operations for ears with extensive cholesteatoma has led to a renewed preference for open techniques. Although the technical advantages provided by magnification and hypotensive anaesthesia have reduced the numbers of unstable post-operative open mastoidectomy cavities, when large, they are still ...

We aimed to assess the effectiveness of mastoidectomy on outcomes of tympanoplasty performed in patients with persistent or intermittent discharging chronic suppurative otitis media without cholesteatoma.Prospective, randomized, single-blinded study.
