Cholesteatoma is a collection of keratinizing squamous epithelium in the middle ear. It is not malignant but is locally destructive.
Usually follows chronic otitis media or a retraction pocket where skin gets trapped.
⚙️ Key pathology
Expands and erodes bone
Affects ossicles, mastoid air cells, sometimes facial nerve
👂 Clinical features
Foul-smelling chronic ear discharge
Painless progressive conductive hearing loss
Ear fullness
🔍 Diagnosis
Otoscopy: pearly white mass
CT temporal bone: bone erosion
🛠 Treatment
Surgical removal
🚨 Complications
Conductive hearing loss
Mastoiditis
Facial nerve palsy
Intracranial infection
⭐️ Key clue
Chronic foul-smelling discharge + painless hearing loss = cholesteatoma until proven otherwise
