Abstract:
The etiology of cholesteatoma is still enigmatic. Of the current theories, none has been confirmed with adequately convincing evidence. A completely suitable animal model has not hitherto been available and there is still a need for further experimental studies of this entity. As a possible experimental model we suggest dimethyl-benzanthracene induced cholesteatoma in the rat.
