Article Synopsis
- Endoscopic ossicular chain reconstruction (OCR) in children has shown similar results to traditional methods, but research on its effectiveness for pediatric patients is limited due to unique anatomical and pathological factors.
- A retrospective study at a tertiary care center reviewed 17 children under 17 years old who underwent endoscopic OCR, focusing on surgical outcomes, hearing improvement, and complications.
- The typical age of patients was about 11.3 years; most had congenital cholesteatoma, experienced no major complications, and had a long-term follow-up of 2.6 years after surgery.
