Abstract

Topicality: Chronic purulent otitis media is a disease that is often encountered in everyday practice by otolaryngologists. To date, the full rehabilitation of the middle ear in pediatric practice has caused much debate about the method of surgery and remains a difficult surgical task.
Aim: to develop a more effective combined method of endoscopic microsurgery in children with chronic otitis media with cholesteatoma.
Materials and methods: examined 52 children aged from 2 to 12 years, operated on a closed variant of tympanoplasty for cholesteatoma otitis. Patients were divided into 2 groups: 1st group (comparison), which used the standard technique of closed variant of surgery with retroauricular incision using an operating microscope (33 patients); and the 2nd group (main), where the combined surgery with retroauricular incision with the using of a microscope and endoscope and endoaural drainage of the antrum was performed in 19 patients.
Results: We conducted an analysis of different types of tympanoplasty in a closed variant of tympanoplasty in children with cholesteatoma otitis and endoaural drainage of the antrum or without it. In the main group, the number of secondary engraftment of the neotympanic membrane decreased 3.4 times, residual perforations – 2.9 times, residual cholesteatoma – 2.9 times, the number of repeated operations – 3.5 times relative to the comparison group.
Conclusion: At the combined surgery of cholesteatoma otitis with endoscopic support at patients of the main group the percent of residual cholesteatoma is lower. The endoaural drainage of the antrum provides additional ventilation and drainage of the reconstructed cavities of a middle ear in the early postoperative period, increases the number of primary engraftment of the neotympanic membrane and reduces the percentage of residual perforations.
