Hello and welcome to HCM,
Cholesteatoma is a disease in which there is accumulation of keratin flakes in middle ear.
This occurs due to replacement of normal epithelium of the middle ear by squamous lining.
This deposition of choleasteatoma leads to conductive hearing loss.
The treatment of choelesteatoma is surgical removal.
The debris removed should be send for histopthological examination.
Thanks and take care
