Video otoscopic examination revealed yellowish keratin debris in Shrapnell's area ( pars flaccida ) of the AS tympanic membrane, surrounded by "attic cerumen" often a characteristic sign of attic cholesteatoma. Keratin plaque is noted in the posterior inferior quadrant. A CT scan is generally considered to be superior to MRI for the detection of choesteatoma-induced bone erosion. The site of lesion is noted in the axial view presented below.

A tympanotomy was then performed in preparation to repair the defect. At this time all the ossicles were confirmed to be normal. The chorda tympani nerve remained intact and no other cholesteatoma or other abnormalities were noted. Figures below present two views of the dissected cholesteatoma The pathology report demonstrated a cystic structure with indistinct lining but whose features were consistent with a cholesteatoma. The specimen was 1.5 mm at its pedunculated base, 2.5 mm wide and 3 mm in length.

Extractions: For the vast majority of patients, the best treatment for cholesteatoma is surgery. This allows removal of the cholesteatoma and attempts to correct the damage the cholesteatoma has done. This surgery is called a mastoidectomy . At times this surgery may be accompanied by a tym-panoplasty (repair of an eardrum), and an

Extractions: Cholesteatoma: A Serious Ear Condition This brochure is a copy of an American Academy of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery Public Service Brochure. This site maintained by Todd A. Child M.D. and the Ear Nose and Throat Center of Salt Lake City A cholesteatoma is a skin growth that occurs in an abnormal location, the middle ear behind the eardrum. It is usually due to repeated infection which causes an in growth of the skin of the eardrum. Cholesteatomas often take the form of a cyst or pouch which sheds layers of old skin that builds up inside the ear. Over time, the cholesteatoma can increase in size and destroy the surrounding delicate bones of the middle ear. Hearing loss, dizziness, and facial muscle paralysis are rare but can result from continued cholesteatoma growth. A cholesteatoma usually occurs because of poor eustachian tube function as well as infection in the middle ear. The eustachian tube conveys air from the back of the nose into the middle ear to equalize ear pressure ("clear the ears"). When the eustachian tubes work poorly, perhaps due to allergy, a cold or sinusitis, the air in the middle ear is absorbed by the body, and a partial vacuum results in the ear. The vacuum pressure sucks in a pouch or sac by stretching the eardrum, especially areas weakened by previous infections. This sac often becomes a cholesteatoma. A rare congenital form of cholesteatoma (one present at birth) can occur in the middle ear and elsewhere, such as in the nearby skull bones. However, the type of cholesteatoma associated with ear infections is most common.

A cholesteatoma cyst consists of desquamating (peeling) layers of scaly or keratinised (horny) layers of epithelium, which may also contain cholesterol crystals. If untreated, a cholesteatoma can eat into the three small bones located in the middle ear (the malleus incus and stapes , collectively called ossicles ), which can result in nerve deterioration

At What Point Should Someone Seek An Ear Specialist For Vertigo? May 01, 2000 What Is The Treatment For Cholesteatoma? Most of the time, the treatment is surgery. Occasionally, cholesteatomas can be cleaned through the ear canal, under a microscope in the office, but most of them require surgery. It has a very high recurrence rate, for several reasons. One, if the entire cholesteatoma is not removed during the first surgery, there is a likelihood of recurrence. Second, if the disease process that caused the cholesteatoma to form in the first place still exists and hasn't improved, this can lead to a second cholesteatoma. So it's not really a residual cholesteatoma, but rather, a recurrent cholesteatoma. Sometimes they are residual, meaning, a little bit was left behind the first time, and sometimes they are recurrent, because the disease starts all over again.

At What Point Should Someone Seek An Ear Specialist For Vertigo? May 01, 2000 What Is Cholesteatoma And What Are The Symptoms? Cholesteatoma is a cyst containing mostly the shed parts of skin. Layers of skin are always flaking off from our bodies. When it is contained in a place where that shed skin can't fall off and become dust, it collects into a ball. Then that ball or cyst slowly gets bigger and bigger causing destruction or erosion of things it is pressing against. When a small pocket of skin grows into the middle ear, it can cause erosion of the middle ear structures and sometimes extend to the inner ear or to the intercranial space near or in the brain. If this cholesteatoma were on your hand, we would get rid of it easily. But because it's located in such a difficult spot, close to so many vital structures, it becomes a major, serious condition.

Extractions: CHOLESTEATOMA A perforation of the ear drum will generally heal without surgery. In some cases, however, instead of normally healing, the skin of the ear drum can grow through the hole into the middle ear. If infection is present, the skin will continue to grow into the middle ear and will become a tumor of the ear termed a cholesteatoma. Cholesteatomas are NOT a form of cancer. They are benign tumors. As they grow, they can look like an onion peel of white skin formed into a ball. Cholesteatomas can also be present without a hole in the ear drum, and without a history of ear infection. These types of cholesteatoms are called congenital cholesteatomas. They are often overlooked until they grow to a relatively large size. Cholesteatoma can destroy the bones of hearing as they grow, especially when the ear is infected. Consequently, symptoms of cholesteatoma include hearing loss and recurring discharge from the ear. Pus or unpleasant smelling fluids coming from the ear are common. A surgical microscope is necessary to make a proper inspection and cleansing of the condition, especially when there is infection. Cholesteatomas actively erode bone because they contain enzymes which are activated by moisture. In time, cholesteatomas will eventually erode the bone leading into the inner ear. This can cause nerve loss and deafness as well as severe imbalance and dizziness. The thin plate of bone that separates the roof of the ear from the brain can also be eroded by cholesteatomas.

Extractions: Home Mastoidectomy is an operation that allows the exposure of the mastoid air cells, middle ear space and ossicles. It is useful in eradicating chronic infections of the ear and the removal of cholesteatomas. This operation is also useful in exposing the facial nerve and in certain approaches to the inner ear structures. The picture above shows the external auditory canal (EAC) and the mastoid antrum (the largest air cell in the mastoid). The sigmoid sinus is a large vein that drains blood from the brain. The tegmen is the bone that separates the mastoid from the brain. In this left canal wall up mastoidectomy, the tympanic membrane has been elevated forward and a cholesteatoma sac is visible in the attic. This patient has a recurrent cholesteatoma which has found its way to the surface of the post-auricular skin, forming a mastoid cutaneous fistula.
