  • Title: Detection of recurrent cholesteatoma by computerized tomography after 'closed cavity' mastoid surgery.
    Author: Wake M, Robinson JM, Witcombe JB, Bazerbachi S, Stansbie JM, Phelps PD.
    Journal: J Laryngol Otol; 1992 May; 106(5):393-5. PubMed ID: 1613362.
    Abstract:
    Pre-operative Computerized Tomography was performed prior to second look operations in 10 cases to check for cholesteatoma after combined approach tympanoplasty. Three independent opinions were obtained on the CT scans and compared with the operative findings. This small series failed to demonstrate reliable pre-operative radiological detection of cholesteatoma. There was disappointing inter-observer agreement in interpretation of the CT scans.
