| dc.description.abstract | This study aimed to investigate the abnormal high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) findings in cholesteatomatous chronic otitis media (CCOM) patients preoperatively and the coexistence of abnormal HRCT findings with facial canal dehiscence (FCD) observed intraoperatively to identify the predictive factors associated with FCD. Methods The medical records of 151 CCOM patients who had undergone tympanomastoidectomy at our center were retrospectively examined in terms of the patients' age and gender, preoperative HRCT findings [scutum defect, posterior wall of external auditory canal (PWEAC) defect, lateral semicircular canal (LSSC) defect, tegmen defect, and sigmoid plate erosion]. Operation records containing information about FCD were also analyzed. Results The prevalence of FCD was found to be 33.8% (51/151). There was a significant correlation between the presence of scutum, PWEAC, LSSC, and tegmen defects and the presence of FCD. However, no statistically significant correlation was found between the presence of sigmoid plate erosion and the presence of FCD. The results of regression analysis of the coexisting pathologic findings for FCD showed that the risk of FCD was highest in patients with LSSC + scutum defects (34.3-fold increase), followed by LSSC + PWEAC defects (31.6-fold increase). | |
