This study presents improved Todd's meatoplasty for chronic otorrhoea after canal wall down mastoidectomy. The technique successfully created dry cavities, reducing follow-up needs and complications.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Surgical Innovation

Background:

  • Chronic otorrhoea presents a challenge post-canal wall down mastoidectomy.
  • Establishing a large meatus is crucial for successful open cavity surgery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a modified transposition postauricular flap meatoplasty technique.
  • To evaluate its efficacy in managing chronic otorrhoea after mastoidectomy.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of patients undergoing modified meatoplasty.
  • Application of the technique in an academic tertiary referral center.

Main Results:

  • Successful creation of dry radical cavities within six weeks.
  • Reduction in outpatient follow-up visits.
