Objective: To determine the effect of closing the bone defect of the mastoid cortex using bone pate after mastoidectomy (mastoid cortex plasty) during the first-stage operation for the restoration of the mastoid cavity aeration.Study Design: This was a prospective study,Setting: Tertiary medical center,Patients: Thirty-five patients with cholesteatoma invading the mastoid cavity.Intervention: Seventeen patients received mastoid cortex plasty with scutum plasty and insertion of a Silastic sheet after removal of the cholesteatoma using a combined approach during the first-stage operation. The 18 control patients received only scutum plasty with the insertion of a Silastic sheet without mastoid cortex plasty during the first-stage operation.Main Outcome Measures: The restoration of the middle ear aeration was assessed with high-resolution computed tomography before both the first-stage operation and the second-stage operation.Results: The range of middle ear aeration ameliorated significantly whether or not mastoid cortex plasty was performed. Scutum plasty with the insertion of a Silastic sheet without mastoid cortex plasty was significantly effective only for the amelioration of the epitympanum aeration. Mastoid cortex plasty with scutum plasty with the insertion of a Silastic sheet was significantly effective for the amelioration of the epitympanum and also the mastoid cavity aeration. In both groups, before the first-stage operation, approximately 70% of the patients had good mesotympanum aeration, and the mesotympanum aeration ameliorated further after the first-stage operation., although this amelioration was not significant.Conclusions: Mastoid cortex plasty is statistically effective for the amelioration of mastoid cavity aeration after the first-stage operation.
