Summary

Chronic otitis media (COM) has a significant impact on health issues since prehistoric time. It is a global disease, seen in all the continents of world having different environmental and socioeconomic background. COM is characterized as a permanent abnormality of the pars tensa or flaccida, most likely a result of earlier acute otitis media, negative middle ear pressure or otitis media with effusion. COM squamous active (cholesteatoma) is a type of COM, which is a mass formed by keratinizing squamous epithelium in the middle ear and/or mastoid, subepithelial connective tissue and by the progressive accumulation of keratin debris with/without surrounding inflammatory reaction.
