Abstract
Pediatric cholesteatomas (PC) have multifactorial aetiology, spread aggressively and there are high chances of residual/ recurrent disease after treatment. The surgical technique to manage this entity has been debatable. This study was done to (i) enumerate the presentation of PC and the surgical techniques adopted (ii) analyse the outcomes viz., residual/ recurrence rates and hearing results. A cross sectional record based study was done on 618 cases of PC operated between 1983 and 2015, at a centre dedicated to otology and lateral skull base surgery. The data which was maintained on the basis of clinical and peri- operative findings was analysed. Otorrhea (59.2%) and hearing loss (54.2%) were the common symptoms. The surgeries done were: canal wall up (CWU) (44.3%), canal wall down (CWD) (41.1%), modified bondy's mastoidectomy (5.7%), radical mastoidectomy (4.9%), trans canal excision (1.8%) and subtotal petrosectomy (2.3%). The residual and recurrence rates were 12.6% and 7.9% respectively. A significant difference between the pre and post operative hearing was observed. The mean improvement in air bone gap was 7.7db. Residual/ recurrent disease were higher in CWU as compared to CWD group. The surgery should be individualised so that the patient remains disease free.
期刊介绍：
Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head & Neck Surgery was founded as Indian Journal of Otolaryngology in 1949 as a scientific Journal published by the Association of Otolaryngologists of India and was later rechristened as IJOHNS to incorporate the changes and progress.
IJOHNS, undoubtedly one of the oldest Journals in India, is the official publication of the Association of Otolaryngologists of India and is about to publish it is 67th Volume in 2015. The Journal published quarterly accepts articles in general Oto-Rhino-Laryngology and various subspecialities such as Otology, Rhinology, Laryngology and Phonosurgery, Neurotology, Head and Neck Surgery etc.
The Journal acts as a window to showcase and project the clinical and research work done by Otolaryngologists community in India and around the world. It is a continued source of useful clinical information with peer review by eminent Otolaryngologists of repute in their respective fields. The Journal accepts articles pertaining to clinical reports, Clinical studies, Research articles in basic and applied Otolaryngology, short Communications, Clinical records reporting unusual presentations or lesions and new surgical techniques. The journal acts as a catalyst and mirrors the Indian Otolaryngologist’s active interests and pursuits. The Journal also invites articles from senior and experienced authors on interesting topics in Otolaryngology and allied sciences from all over the world.
The print version is distributed free to about 4000 members of Association of Otolaryngologists of India and the e-Journal shortly going to make its appearance on the Springer Board can be accessed by all the members.
Association of Otolaryngologists of India and M/s Springer India group have come together to co-publish IJOHNS from January 2007 and this bondage is going to provide an impetus to the Journal in terms of international presence and global exposure.
