Abstract:
Posterior canal wall reconstruction using porous hydroxylapatite (HA), Grote canal wall prosthesis (Richards), has been recommended for obliteration of troublesome "canal-wall-down" procedures. The same method has been utilized during the management of diverse otologic problems. The results obtained encourage the further utilization of this technique in the management of various otologic dilemmas. Indications for reconstruction of the posterior canal wall using HA are suggested.
