Evaluation of Residual Disease Following Transcanal Totally Endoscopic vs Postauricular Surgery Among Children With Middle Ear and Attic Cholesteatoma
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Importance: Transcanal totally endoscopic ear surgery (TEES) improves tympanic cavity visibility during cholesteatoma resection but does not readily permit 2-handed surgery, which is possible with a postauricular approach and use of an operating microscope. Improved visibility and 2-handed access may reduce rates of incomplete surgical clearance and residual cholesteatoma. Objective: To compare rates of residual cholesteatoma after TEES vs those after open surgery with a postauricular approach for initial disease limited to the middle ear and/or attic. Design, Setting, and Participants: This propensity score-matched cohort study considered a consecutive sample of 209 pediatric cases of cholesteatomas resected at a tertiary referral center between January 1, 2005, and December 31, 2017, by either TEES or postauricular approach. The 177 cases (84.7%) in 172 patients that were eligible for inclusion in the study had undergone at least 1 of the following assessments: second-look tympanoplasty, diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging, or in-clinic follow-up examination at least 2 years after the operation. Ears were matched on the basis of the propensity score, a function of age, sex, comorbid diagnoses, etiology, disease extent, ossicular chain condition, presence or absence of tympanic membrane perforation, and otorrhea status at the time of surgery. Exposures: Transcanal totally endoscopic ear surgery was defined as a transcanal approach with surgeon-reported use of an endoscope for resection of cholesteatoma. Use of an operating microscope was permitted in the TEES group for graft placement during tympanoplasty. The postauricular approach was characterized by a postauricular incision and use of an operative microscope with or without adjunct use of an endoscope. Main Outcomes and Measures: Residual cholesteatoma. Results: Of 177 cases included in the study, the unmatched cohort consisted of 65 ears that had undergone TEES (mean [SD] age, 9.9 [3.6] years; 33 [50.8%] female) and 112 ears of patients who had undergone surgery with a postauricular approach (mean [SD] age, 9.9 [3.5] years; 72 [64.3%] male). Propensity score matching was accomplished for a total of 128 cases, with 64 in each group. After matching, standardized differences between TEES and postauricular approaches were less than 0.20 for all measured baseline characteristics, indicating balanced groups. The TEES group had a residual disease incidence of 4 of 64 (6.3%) compared with 7 of 64 (10.9%) in the propensity score-matched postauricular approach group (absolute risk difference, -4.7%; 95% CI, -14.8% to 5.4%). Conclusions and Relevance: This study's findings suggest that there was no apparent advantage of the 2-handed postauricular microscopic approach with respect to surgical clearance of cholesteatoma limited to the middle ear and/or attic. Transcanal totally endoscopic ear surgery may be an effective alternative to a postauricular approach for removal of limited cholesteatoma in children.

Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
