Similar to other surgical fraternities, endoscopic ear surgery (EES) faced great challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many elective operations involving EES needed to be postponed, resulting in accumulated cases. Throughout one year during COVID-19, Hospital Sultan Ismail, Johor, Malaysia continued to perform various EES procedures. Although EES is an aerosol-generating procedure, it has become evidence that this minimallyinvasive surgical approach offers lesser bony drilling and shorter operative time as compared to open mastoidectomy. Thus, this reduced the risk of viral transmission to the surgeons and operating staffs.
类似于其他外科兄弟会，内镜耳部手术 (EES) 在 COVID-19 大流行期间面临巨大挑战。许多涉及 EES 的择期手术需要推迟，导致病例积压。在 COVID-19 期间的一年中，马来西亚柔佛州苏丹依斯干达医院继续进行各种 EES 手术。尽管 EES 是一种产生气溶胶的手术，但它已经证明，与开放式乳突切开术相比，这种微创外科方法可以减少骨钻和缩短手术时间。因此，这降低了病毒向外科医生和手术人员传播的风险。
