Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to classify external auditory canal cholesteatoma (EACC) using high-resolution CT scans and evaluate clinical findings for better surgical management.
  • Data from 56 patients with EACC were analyzed, categorizing cases into extensive or localized types based on the extent of the condition and associated bone erosion.
  • The results showed that extensive EACC often leads to common symptoms like ear discharge, pain, and hearing loss, with most patients receiving surgical intervention, resulting in improved hearing and minimal recurrence post-surgery.

Article Synopsis
  • The study assessed the safety and effectiveness of performing bilateral same-day myringoplasty on patients with bilateral tympanic membrane perforations, involving 22 patients who underwent the procedure.
  • Patients' hearing improved by an average of 18 dB post-operation, with a high success rate of tympanic membrane closure at 93.2%.
  • While the bilateral group experienced some temporary ear fullness as a postoperative complication, overall results indicate that this method is feasible and safe, distinguishing it from the results of a control group who had monaural (single ear) surgery.

Objective: To evaluate three-axis otoconia maneuver (TOM) for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV).

Methods: The data from twenty BPPV patients who received three-axis otoconia maneuver treatment and 20 BPPV patients who received canalith repositioning (CRP) maneuver treatment were analyzed retrospectively.

Results: There were 17 patients received 1 TOM session and 3 patients received 2 TOM sessions while 16 patients received 1 CRP session and 4 patients received 2 CRP sessions.
