Objectives: to assess the operativel finding in middle ear cleft including the attic and air cells during mastoid exploration. Study design: Prospective study Setting: E.N.T department Kirkuk Azadi Teaching Hospitals Patient’s selection: 20 Ears; on whom decision of mastoid exploration was taken. Extensions of granulation tissue and cholesteatoma assessed. Results: 60% belonged to active mucosal COM with granulation tissue found in the mastoid cavity.40% belonged to active squamous COM with cholesteatoma and granulation tissue found in the mastoid air cell system. Aural polyp found with extensive mucosal disease, bone erosion and 50% associated with cholesteatoma. Conclusion : Active mucosal chronic oitis media was found more frequently during mastoid exploration in the selected ears for our study | ||
