Abstract:
A large meatoplasty improves the postoperative management of mastoid cavities in providing good ventilation, preventing otorrhoea and allowing ease of inspection for removal of wax. A technique to provide a large meatoplasty is described and the results of 56 operations performed over a 5-year period are reviewed.
