Özet

OBJECTIVES: Petrous bone cholesteatoma is a rare pathologic entity and may be a difficult surgical challenge because of potential involvement of the facial nerve, carotid artery, dura mater, otic capsule and superior petrosal or lateral sinus. The objective of this article is to present the endoscope-assisted surgery for petrous bone cholesteatoma. MATERIALS and METHODS: Eight patients (nine ears) who underwent endoscope-assisted petrous bone surgery for cholesteatoma. Pure tone audiogram, magnetic resonance imaging were performed at preoperatively, and at approximately 12 months postoperatively. RESULTS: Endoscope assisted surgery was performed in 8 patients and 9 ears. Of these patients, 6 were male and 2 were females. Median age was 19,5 (range 7-52) years. Hearing was able to preserved in 8 ears (8/9). Recurrence disease was observed one ear in long term follow up (1/9). In another one patient, cholesteatoma pearl was removed in the office. CONCLUSION: Endoscope-assisted surgery can allow removal of cholesteatoma of petrous apex with preserving hearing. It also provides to remove the cholesteatoma via transmastoid approach for perilabyrinthine space as 'minimally invasive surgery" instead of middle fossa approach that is standard surgical procedure. In apical and peri-labyrinthine cholesteatomas, endoscopes allow to preserve hearing with middle fossa approach instead of trans-otic/trans-labyrinthine/trans-cochlear approach.
