Abstract
|
|
|
|
There are occasional complications after tympanostomy tube insertion due either to the operative procedure itself or to the anato-mical or physiological effects of the tubes. Hearing loss, persisting perforation, tympanosclerosis, atrophy, atelectasis, and the development of cholesteatoma have all been attributed to the tympanostomy tubes. The development of a secondary cholesteatoma at the site of the tube placement Grommet cholesteatoma- is a very uncommon complication. We report one case of cholesteatoma associated with tympanostomy tube insertion.
