Objective:
To determine the stage of middle ear cholesteatoma of patients who underwent middle ear surgery at the Southern Philippines Medical Center from January to December 2019, based on European Academy of Otology and Neurotology / Japan Otological Society (EAONO/JOS) system.
Methods:
Design: Case Series.
Setting: Tertiary Government Hospital.
Participants: A total of 42 charts were included in the study.
Results:
Of the 42 cases evaluated, congenital cholesteatoma was seen in 4 while acquired cholesteatoma was noted in 38, (further subdivided into 34 retraction pocket cholesteatoma and 4 non-retraction pocket/traumatic cholesteatoma). A majority (57%) had Stage II cholesteatoma (mass occupying at least two sub-sites in the middle ear) at the time of surgery. Eight (19%) had stage I cholesteatoma (confined to one sub-site), five (12%) had stage III cholesteatoma evidenced by extracranial complications such as subperiosteal abscess and erosion of the semi[1]circular canals. Stage IV cholesteatoma was seen in 5 (12%) presenting with intracranial abscess. Canal wall down mastoidectomy was the most common surgical approach performed. The sinus tympani (S2 ) was the most commonly involved difficult to access site across all classifications of middle ear cholesteatoma (60%).
Conclusion
Our study provided an initial profile of the stages and severity of middle ear cholesteatoma in our institution based on actual surgical approaches. Such a profile can be the nidus for a database that can help us to understand disease prevalence and compare local surgical practices with those in the international community.

Literature has reported the existence of cholesteatoma in chronic suppurative otitis media with tuberculosis. This report demonstrates that a cholesteatoma can be associated with an acute otitis media with tuberculosis. The importance of a high index of suspicion for tuberculous otitis media and its consequent meticulous management including diagnostic tests, medical and surgical procedures and monitoring are discussed.

Introduction: Cholesteatoma is an aggressive disease and its management poses a greater challenge in children than in adults. This study reviews the experience of Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Medical Centre in the clinical presentation and management outcome of acquired cholesteatoma in paediatrics that required surgical interventions. Materials and Methods: A retrospective review of case records of patients below 18 years old who underwent surgery from 1999 to 2010. Results: A total of 46 patients presented with 53 cases of cholesteatoma in which seven patients had bilateral disease. The age of presentation ranged from four to 18 years old with a mean age of 12 years. Male and female patients were 65% and 35% respectively. Otorrhoea or previous history of otorrhoea on presentation was found in 94% and 96% of them had hearing impairment. Cerebellopontine angle abscess, sigmoid sinus thrombosis and mastoiditis were among the complications. Tympanic membrane was retracted in 64% while 47% having had attic retraction and 53% had total atelectasis. A majority (85%) underwent canal wall down surgery with or without tympanoplasty. Post-operatively, 71% had improvement or preserved hearing level. The duration of follow up ranged from one month to 13 years and a quarter had recurrent disease and underwent revision surgeries. Conclusion: Majority of the cholesteatoma patients suffered from hearing loss and otorrhoea. Tympanic membrane retraction remained the most common clinical finding. Hence, children with persistent otorrhoea after adequate treatment may represent cholesteatoma. Surgical options of canal wall up and canal wall down procedures have equal risk of recurrence.

Cholesteatoma is a serious disease of the ear. It is defined as a benign skin lesion that grows in the middle ear cleft. The most commonly affected sites are the middle ear cavity and mastoid bone. It can also develop in the petrous apex. It can manifest with a wide range of symptoms ranging from persistent ear discharge to hearing loss. The treatment is almost always surgical excision. We report a rare case of middle ear cholesteatoma that presented as an aural polyp arising from the posterior wall of the external auditory canal.

8.Cholesteatomas that arise from refraction pockets are known as primary acquired cholesteatoma
Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Information 2000;10():30-33
Several theories have been advanced to explain the formation of primary acquired or attic refraction Cholesteatomas including invagination of the pars flaccida, basal cell hyperplasia, otitis media with effusion, and perforation of the pars flaccida membrane with epithelial ingrowth. The study suggests it is the VA to be the cause of the otitis media with effusion and the attic Cholesteatomas.
