Abstract
Introduction Chronic otitis media squamous is a gradually expanding destructive lesion and leads to complications by eroding the adjacent structures. Facial canal and ossicles are in close proximity in the middle ear space and they share the same pathogenesis of the bony erosion. Ossicular chain erosion found intraoperatively due to cholesteatoma, may suggest the likelihood of facial canal dehiscence. This study was conducted to assess the relationship between ossicular chain erosion and facial canal dehiscence in chronic otitis media squamous.
