[Ear reoperation and surgical tactics after earlier radical operation].
In the Izhevsk hospital ENT department, medical aid in 1985-1992 was rendered to 572 patients with chronic otitis media purulenta, 139 patients underwent radical and nonradical surgery. 12 of them needed reoperation. One patient had intracranial complication, 2 patients developed subperiosteal retroauricular abscess. According to the author, recurrent inflammation in the operated on ear was due to: cholesteatoma recurrence, osteomyelitis foci, predisposition to keloid formation in the postoperative cavity, carious anvil, filling material in the cavity (3, 5, 2, 1 and 1 cases, respectively). The author emphasizes an important role of the initial operation accuracy in prevention of postoperative recurrences.
