title: [Reconstruction of bone defects in the earcanal with hydroxyapatite].
abstract: Traditional reconstruction methods of osseous defects within the tympanic frame, most often being the atticotomy, within the framework of chronic otitis media surgery, still do not produce stable or definitive results, usually due to displacement or partial lyse of the transplanted material (cartilage, bone ...). The reconstruction procedure with the aid of hydroxyapatite cement as presented by the authors, allows for a complete, stable and definitive reconstruction.
