Another look at Daggett's 1948 tympanoplasty.

It is important that we look critically at the results of conservative tympanoplasty in the presence of cholesteatoma. Lessons and observations taught many years ago by earlier otologists may give us valuable leads. A method of conservative surgery for chronic suppurative ear disease devised by Dr William Daggett in London in the late 1940s is described and evaluated in the light of current technical expertise.

A method of stapedectomy in the fenestrated ear.

Two consequences of a previous fenestration militate against successful stapledectomy. They are the lessened depth of the middle ear over the stapes, and the missing incus. Twelve years' experience of using the stapedectomy for fenestrated ears in 62 patients has given generally disappointing results until, in 1962, technique of using cartilage blocks to increase the depth of the middle ear was devised.

Stapedectomy--shorter prosthesis recommended.

Based on some 4500 operations, a follow-up study has revealed certain recurring problems. Shorter than usual prostheses in Stapedectomy operations are strongly advised. A favourable influence on the later occurrence of Fistula and extrusion can be expected. Possible causes for extrusion are studied.
