[Facial nerve in children with cholesteatoma of the middle ear].
Electroneuromyographic investigation of the facial nerve function was performed in children with long-lasting epitympanitis and cholesteatoma of the middle ear. Electroneuromyographic parameters were abnormal on the side of the affected ear in all the examinees. This points to the axonal type of the facial nerve impairment of different severity.
