The increased populatiry of surfing has produced a marked augmentation in the incidence of ear canal exostosis. However, when it becomes moderately severe, I prefer to call it "hyperostosis." Exposure to cold ocean water for many years can be an important etiologic factor in hyperostosis. There is a serious risk, and a high incidence of tympanic membrane perforations during the removal of large external canal hyperostosis. This injury can be prevented by placing a sheet of Silastic against the tympanic membrane beforehand. I describe the method. Serious degrees of hyperostosis, causing transient hearing loss and otitis externa, are increasingly common in coastal towns, where cold-water surfing is a popular year-around sport.
冲浪运动日益普及，导致外耳道外生骨疣的发病率显著上升。然而，当病情发展到中度严重程度时，我更倾向于称之为“骨质增生”。多年暴露于冰冷海水中可能是骨质增生的一个重要病因。在切除外耳道较大的骨质增生时，存在鼓膜穿孔的严重风险且发生率较高。预先在鼓膜上放置一片硅橡胶可以预防这种损伤。我将描述这种方法。在冷水冲浪全年都很流行的沿海城镇，严重程度的骨质增生导致短暂性听力损失和外耳道炎的情况越来越常见。
