Long-Term Outcomes of Modified Endoscopic Transcanal Approach to Small Acoustic Tumors.
Objective: The management options for small acoustic tumors are still controversial, and surgery is indicated in a select number of patients only. This is to avoid unnecessary extensive operations and risk of complications. Endoscopic transcanal approach, which was recently introduced, can be an alternative option to overcome these challenges. We have developed a modified technique for endoscopic transcanal removal of small acoustic tumors with tympanoplasty using tragal cartilage and without the need to harvest abdominal fat for obliteration. There was also no need to do an ear cul-de-sac procedure compared with the previous method. We report the long-term outcomes of this approach.
Study design: Retrospective review.
Setting: Tertiary hospital.
Patients: Those who were diagnosed with small acoustic tumors between June 2016 and June 2022 were enrolled.
Interventions: Tumor removal via a Modified Endoscopic Transcanal Transpromontorial Approach (mETTA).
Main outcome measure: Tumor control rate, closure rate of tympanic membrane, and complications such as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage and facial palsy were analyzed. Operation time and hospital stay were also analyzed.
Results: Twenty-two patients with a mean age of 55.5 ± 9.4 years were enrolled. Eighteen were vestibular schwannomas (VS), two were intracochlear schwannomas (ICS), and two were with intravestibulocochlear schwannomas (IVCS). Gross total removal was achieved in 21 cases. One had developed significant CSF leakage, and the other patient complicated with permanent facial palsy. The tympanic membrane healed well in all patients, but three patients showed delayed healing until several months and treated conservatively. Mean operation time was 149.6 ± 48.4 minutes, mean hospital stay was 8.9 ± 4.5 days, and mean postoperative follow-up period was 42.0 ± 15.7 months.
Conclusion: Long-term results of modified endoscopic transcanal approach to small acoustic tumors are acceptable and comparable to classical treatments such as translabyrinthine approach or gamma knife radiation. This is an alternative option for smaller tumors warranting surgical removal and maintained cosmetic advantages.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
