Abstract:
In a series of 45 consecutive cases with proven cholesteatoma, the correlation between the preoperative CT findings and observations made at surgery was evaluated. On the preoperative CT protocol 11 parameters of the anatomical and pathological features of the temporal bone were correlated with the operation report. Except for the ossicles, a high degree of correlation was noted between CT findings and those at the operation.
