Congenital cholesteatoma is thought to be caused by inadequate folding of the epidermoid formation inside the middle ear cleft. During development of the middle ear mucosa, stratified squamous epithelium accumulates in the embryonic life. Its typical appearance is a "pearl" beneath the anterosuperior quadrant of the tympanic membrane.
We report 28 years-old case with congenital cholesteatoma in the posterosuperior quadrant of middle ear cavity. The main complaint was the hearing loss which had developed slowly over several years.
The case was surgically treated. Postoperative hearing result was satisfactory.
Congenital cholesteatoma may occur in atypical locations and ages. Many authors prefer canal wall down tympanomastoidectomy. But it can also be treated successfully by intact canal wall tympanomastoidectomy with good hearing results.
先天性胆脂瘤被认为是由中耳裂内表皮样结构折叠不充分所致。在中耳黏膜发育过程中,分层鳞状上皮在胚胎期积聚。其典型表现为鼓膜前上象限下方的“珍珠”。
我们报告一例28岁患者,中耳腔后上象限存在先天性胆脂瘤。主要症状是听力损失,已持续数年且呈缓慢进展。
该病例接受了手术治疗。术后听力结果令人满意。
先天性胆脂瘤可能发生在非典型部位和年龄段。许多作者更倾向于开放式鼓室乳突切除术。但完整外耳道壁鼓室乳突切除术也可成功治疗,且听力效果良好。
