    Author: Gürsel B, Sennaroglu L, Ergin T.
    Journal: Laryngorhinootologie; 1996 Sep; 75(9):551-3. PubMed ID: 9035679.
    Abstract:
    Primary cholesteatoma of the temporal bone is a very rare disease. Initially, the tympanic membrane is intact, and often facial palsy may be the presenting symptom. The authors present a case of primary cholesteatoma which was surgically treated using a transmastoid-translabyrinthine approach. Other surgical approaches to the petrous apex are discussed.
