The successful activities of the numerous qualified staff at the Top Ichilov medical clinic in Israel allow hundreds of thousands of patients to regain the joy of healthy and fulfilling lives each year.
The active use of modern therapeutic protocols, innovative diagnostic methods, excellent clinic facilities, and research centers have made medicine in Israel exemplary. This is evidenced by the continuous flow of medical tourists from around the world to the clinics in this country. Some patients seek help from Israeli doctors for hearing disorders.
One of the common diseases is cholesteatoma. This condition is caused by the growth of skin cells, accumulation of cholesterol, and keratin. In the ear canal, this mass forms a dense conglomerate, leading to disturbances in the vestibular apparatus, dizziness, facial nerve damage, and hearing loss.
Specialists from the otolaryngology department of the Top Ichilov medical center have successfully mastered the performance of minimally invasive interventions using endoscopic microsurgical equipment. Performing endoscopic mastoidectomy allows for the resolution of the cholesteatoma problem. During the operation, parts of the temporal bone and affected adjacent areas will be removed.
Cholesteatoma Treatment at the Top Ichilov Clinic
- Performing minimally invasive interventions on the middle ear allows for maximum preservation of the organs. Minimally invasive techniques enable easy access to hard-to-reach areas in the middle ear cavity. In this process, the facial nerve, cranial membranes, nerves, and vessels in this area are not damaged.
- Such operations significantly reduce the recovery period and minimize the likelihood of complications.
- The endoscopic technique allows for the avoidance of complex, extensive surgery.
- These interventions at the Top Ichilov Clinic are performed by authoritative specialists in the field of otolaryngology.
