TI  - Endoscopic Ear Surgery : 7 Years of Single Center Experience
AB  - This study aims to share our clinic's endoscopic ear surgery experiences and create a guide for future, more detailed studies. The data of patients who were operated on endoscopically or in combination with a microscope were collected between 2015 and 2022 years retrospectively. The data of 70 patients who had ear surgery with an endoscopic or combined approach with a microscope in our clinic were included in this study. The patients were divided into four groups. The type-1 tympanoplasty group (26 cases) was followed for an average of 16.3 months. The mean follow-up period of 9 cases in the middle ear exploration and ossiculoplasty group was 13.4 months. The case group of 18 people who were operated on for cholesteatoma was followed up for an average of 17.7 months. The stapedectomy case group (17 patients) was followed up for a mean of 14.9 months. Significant improvement was observed in the air-bone gap. Considering the increasing use of endoscopy in otology, we believe that its advantages over the traditional microscopic approach in pathologies limited to the middle ear should be supported by further studies.
