Cholesteatoma Surgery: An Art of Canal Wall Reconstruction (Original PDF from Publisher+Videos)

By B. M. Gupta
Cholesteatoma Surgery: An Art of Canal Wall Reconstruction is a comprehensive book covering most of the topics related to this field. A major part of the book covers all practical aspects of cholesteatoma surgery that are extremely useful for both junior consultants and postgraduate students. Two main surgical techniques are commonly practiced for the treatment of cholesteatoma, which are canal wall up surgery and canal wall down surgery. Both these techniques have certain definitive and distinct advantages and disadvantages. The author has described that the most suitable technique for cholesteatoma removal involves the removal of the bony canal wall, leading to adequate and complete exposure of the disease with complete removal of the cholesteatoma, followed by reconstruction of the canal wall to give a normal and healthy middle ear cleft after surgery. This is the best and most effective way of dealing with cholesteatoma patients. The key features of this book include the following: Reconstruction of canal wall defects by using tragal cartilage or conchal cartilage to avoid a lifetime cavity in the ear, thus avoiding cavity problems. A series of clear and self-explanatory surgical photographs and high-quality videos to help the readers understand the surgical techniques. B.M.
