  • Title: [Mastoidoplasty as a stage of medical rehabilitation in patients with chronic suppurative otitis media].
    Author: Dzhabbarov KD, Khushbakov ACh.
    Journal: Vestn Otorinolaringol; 2010; (2):36-8. PubMed ID: 20517278.
    Abstract:
    A modified technique for autoplastic correction of the mastoid cavity in patients with chronic suppurative otitis media is described. Closed sanation surgery with simulataneous mastoidoplasty was performed using a musculofascial flap on the vascularized pedicle cut out from the occipitomastoid suture region and placed in the trepanation cavity so that its distal end be positioned in the antrum, preferably to obturate it. A polyethylene tube inserted in the lower corner of the tightly sutured wound served to administer ceftriaxone in the postoperative period. It is concluded that the proposed method of mastoidoplasty makes possible one-step correction of soft and bone tissue defects in the postaural region and preservation of functional capacity of the acoustic analyzer.
