Article Synopsis
- The study aims to identify pre-operative indicators of incudal necrosis in patients with tubo-tympanic chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM), involving 80 participants from a hospital.
- It found older patients (over 30 years) and those with a longer history (over 10 years) of CSOM had a higher incidence of ossicular necrosis, as did those with granulation tissue and moderate to moderately severe hearing loss.
- The research concludes that detailed assessments can lead to early diagnosis of ossicular erosion, which is crucial for surgical planning and patient consent for ossiculoplasty.
