  • Title: [Atypical complication of surgery for otospongiosis: the formation of cholesteatoma].
    Author: Nawara G, Costa D, Kadiri F.
    Journal: Rev Laryngol Otol Rhinol (Bord); 1991; 112(2):169-70. PubMed ID: 1896683.
    Abstract:
    Presenting a clinical case, the authors reveal the possible cholesteatoma complications arising from otospongious surgery. He notice that there are very few literature about similar cases. Underlining the rarity of this complication, the authors will put forward concisely the principal etiological mechanisms occurring in this kind of pathology. Since the reoperation must often be carried out on fragile inner ears, the authors stress on the necessity to respect the elementary rules of prevention in order to avoid the formation of precholesteatoma states.
