  • Title: Cholesteatoma or keratoma: A pathological approach.
    Author: Marquet J.
    Journal: Acta Otorhinolaryngol Belg; 1980; 34(1):5-11. PubMed ID: 7468193.
    Abstract:
    A good knowledge of the pathogenesis of cholesteatoma is as necessary for the otoradiologist as for the otologist. The basic process consists in an ectopic presence in the middle ear of a basal Malpigian like epithelium. Different types of cholesteatoma exist, from the cystic form to the invasive form. While a parameter such as density may vary, the most important information the otologist expects from the radiologist is the definition of bone erosion delineating the extension of this disease.
