Minimal Invasive Endoscopic Ear Surgery: A Two Handed Technique.

ABSTRACT: To evaluate the surgical outcome of two handed technique of endoscopic ear surgery with endoscope holder. Retrospective Non Randomized Clinical Study. A total of 547 endoscope holder (Justtach) assisted ear surgeries (331 cartilage tympanoplasties and 216 cholesteatoma surgeries) were operated with Justtach from July 2013 to April 2016 with a follow up period ranging from 12 to 45 months to evaluate its feasibility and results with the technique. The design of the endoscope holder, Justtach is described along with its functioning and maneuvering techniques. In the endoscopic tympanoplasty group, at 1 year follow up, the graft uptake was seen in 323 ears with three residual perforation and 5 recurrent perforations giving a success rate of 97.58%. At the 2 years follow up, the graft uptake was in 322 ears with 6 recurrent perforations and 3 residual perforations with a success rate of 97.28%. Whereas in case of endoscopic cholesteatoma surgery, there was residual cholesteatoma in 5 and recurrent in 6 out of 216 cases. The study reports the successful application and use of endoscope holder in two handed technique of endoscopic ear surgery. Level of Evidence Level 4.

Project description:UnlabelledThe well established techniques in tympanoplasty are routinely performed with operating microscopes for many decades now. Endoscopic ear surgeries provide minimally invasive approach to the middle ear and evolving new science in the field of otology. The disadvantage of endoscopic ear surgeries is that it is one-handed surgical technique as the non-dominant left hand of the surgeon is utilized for holding and manipulating the endoscope. This necessitated the need for development of the endoscope holder which would allow both hands of surgeon to be free for surgical manipulation and also allow alternate use of microscope during tympanoplasty. To report the preliminary utility of our designed and developed endoscope holder attachment gripping to microscope for two handed technique of endoscopic tympanoplasty. Prospective Non Randomized Clinical Study. Our endoscope holder attachment for microscope was designed and developed to aid in endoscopic ear surgery and to overcome the disadvantage of single handed endoscopic surgery. It was tested for endoscopic Tympanoplasty. The design of the endoscope holder attachment is described in detail along with its manipulation and manoeuvreing. A total of 78 endoholder assisted type 1 endoscopic cartilage tympanoplasties were operated to evaluate its feasibility for the two handed technique and to evaluate the results of endoscopic type 1 cartilage tympanoplasty. In early follow up period ranging from 6 to 20 months, the graft uptake was seen in 76 ears with one residual perforation and 1 recurrent perforations giving a success rate of 97.435 %. Our endocsope holder attachment for gripping microscope is a good option for two handed technique in endoscopic type 1 cartilage tympanoplasty. The study reports the successful application and use of our endoscope holder attachment for gripping microscope in two handed technique of endoscopic type 1 cartilage tympanoplasty and comparable results with microscopic techniques.Level of evidenceIV.
