How Modified Radical Mastoidectomy + Tympanoplasty (CWD/CWU) is performed
Can be used to remove cholesteatoma and reconstruct the tympanic cavity. Surgical methods include open cavity (CWD) or canal wall up (CWU), determined by specialist evaluation. Typically, the middle ear and mastoid are accessed under a microscope to remove keratinized epithelium and granulation tissue, addressing hidden cavities. Mastoid obliteration and external auditory canalplasty are performed if necessary, and the tympanic membrane is repaired with fascia or cartilage. Ossicular chain reconstruction is performed simultaneously or in stages, depending on the situation. Postoperative monitoring includes bleeding, vertigo, and infection. The goal is to remove the lesion and establish a stable middle ear environment. The above is general health information, not medical advice; specific details are subject to specialist evaluation and hospital protocols.
