INTRODUCTION Normally, middle earcleftis lined by differenttypesof epitheliumindifferentregions Itis thepresenceofkeratinizingsquamousepitheliumin themiddle earor mastoid. “Skin in the wrong place.” Essentially,cholesteatomaconsistsof two parts: • • • • (i) the matrix,which is made up ofkeratinizingsquamous epitheliumresting on athin stromaof fibrous tissuesand (ii) a central whitemass, consistingofkeratin debris produced by thematrix . • Also beennamedepidermosisorkeratoma.
ORIGIN 1.Presenceofcongenital cell rests. 2.Invaginationof tympanicmembrane from the attic or posterosuperior partof parstensa in the form ofretractionpockets(Wittmaack’s theory). 3. 4. 5. Basalcell hyperplasia(Ruedi’stheory). Epithelialinvasion(Habermann’stheory). Metaplasia(Sade’stheory).
CLASSIFICATION OFCHOLESTEATOMA • The cholesteatoma is classified into: 1. 2. 3. Congenital Acquired,primary Acquired,secondary
