<p class="abstract"><strong>Background: </strong>CSOM is commonly encountered in the clinical practice as a cause of conductive hearing loss. Preoperative evaluation becomes mandatory for proper management. Ossiculoplasty usually done loss due to ossicular chain abnormality CSOM. The aim outcome ossiculoplasty with and without an intact malleus.</p><p class="abstract"...

<p class="abstract" style="display: inline !important;"><strong>Background:</strong> The main purpose of surgery in cases chronic otitis media is to eradicate the infection and restore middle ear hearing function. Both intact tympanic membrane ossicular chain are essential for restoration these cases. world material science has provided otologists with array biomaterials recon...

Background: Since ancient times, chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) has been a significant contributor to middle ear illness. Antibiotics have extremely helpful, but is still frequent condition, and its consequences present challenge both otologists radiologists. Due the intricate anatomical nature of inner ear, radiological assessment temporal bone challenging.
 Aim Study: To compare...

background: the surgical management of cholesteatoma is a controversial issue, particularly regarding intact-canal-wall mastoidectomy (icwm) versus canal-wall-down mastoidectomy (cwdm). the current experiment compared the quality of  visualization in different middle ear structures using icwm with otoendoscopy with findings of cwdm by microscopy.materials and methods: the patients diagnosed wit...

introduction: although the incidence and prevalence of chronic suppurative otitis media (csom) has been decreased in recent decades, but it is still a major health problem in both developing and developed countries. csom can cause major and life-threatening complications such as hearing loss, meningitis and cerebral abscess. since hearing loss is the most common complication of csom, we aimed t...

OBJECTIVE The coaxial circle system helps prevent heat loss during surgery, and it also acts as a humidifier. This study aimed to compare the coaxial breathing system and the conventional system in their ability to warm and moisturize inhaled gases, and we also analyzed lung function protection and saccharin clearance time in patients who underwent tympanomastoidectomy (TMT) with the aid of the...

Introduction: Chronic otitis media (COM) has been broadly classified into mucosal and squamous subtypes. COM types are associated with erosion of the ossicular chain. The aim of the present study was to correlate the type of COM, the site of perforation/retraction, and the type of disease pathology with the pattern and degree of ossicular chain necrosis.   Materials and Methods: A prospecti...

OBJECTIVE To compare the effects of esmolol (β-blocker) and dexmedetomidine (α-2-agonist) on patients' clinical course and cost of application of controlled hypotension during middle-ear surgery. METHODS Fifty ASA I-II patients scheduled for tympanomastoidectomy were enrolled in the study and were randomized into two groups. Bispectral Index (BIS) and neuromuscular monitoring (TOF GUARD-SX) w...

Since 2011, transcutaneous bone-anchored auditory implants have been an alternative to the classic percutaneous implant (Baha) for bilateral conductive/mixed hearing loss that cannot be corrected by surgery. Recently, a new transcutaneous device has been approved for clinical use. Its internal component is made of the classic titanium Baha fixture, coupled to a 27 mm diameter subcutaneous circu...
