Revision Mastoidectomy

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1990
The objectives of modern otologic surgery are elimination of disease and restoration of hearing. Persistent drainage and recurrent infection after mastoid surgery hallmark failure at achieving these goals. Medical management consisting of meticulous aural toilette and attention to accompanying medical disorders will often yield resolution; however, a ...

Mastoidectomy update

The Laryngoscope, 1977
AbstractThe long‐term results of 375 primary mastoidectomy operations for chronic otitis media and chronic mastoiditis are described and discussed. Two‐thirds of these cases were open cavity mastoidectomies and 1/3 closed cavity mastoidectomies. Primary pathology was cholesteatoma in 1/3 and granulation tissue in 2/3 of the cases.

Revision Mastoidectomy

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2006
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.

Retrograde Mastoidectomy

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2006
The retrograde mastoidectomy technique with canal wall reconstruction is described as a primary treatment for modality for cholesteatoma. This synthesis of canal wall up (CWU) and canal wall down (CWD) techniques involves removal of a portion of the canal wall for exposure and extirpation of the cholesteatoma, followed by reestablishment of the canal ...

Mastoidectomy and Epitympanotomy

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1976
The procedure of mastoidectomy and epitympanotomy effected a two-year arrest of serous otitis media and correction of a refractory retraction pocket in 12 out of 20 patients with one patient lost to follow-up. Each mastoid and epitympanum was extensively involved with chronically inflamed tissue which surrounded the ossicles and chorda tympani nerve.

Small cavity mastoidectomy

Clinical Otolaryngology, 1992
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 ...

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 ...
