Endoscopic Micro Rear Surgery is a common minimally invasive surgery, employed to treat conditions affecting the middle ear and mastoid bone. The condition is triggered due to chronic ear infections, trauma, or other underlying issues. This surgical approach employs an endoscope, a thin tube medical device.
Endoscopic Micro Rear Surgery, often called EMRS, involves making small incisions behind the ear. Tympanoplasty is a prevalent surgical procedure used to repair damaged eardrums. Surgeons may suggest Mastoidectomy surgery to treat mastoiditis or recurrent ear infections.
Before surgery, the patient is evaluated to determine the state of their ears and bones. Our ENT surgeons in Bangalore may order hearing tests and particular imaging like CT scans or MRIs. During the surgery, the surgeon makes a small incision behind the ear and inserts a tiny camera to see inside without making significant incisions. If the eardrum has to be fixed, the surgeon will carefully apply a small piece of tissue to mask any holes or anomalies. If a patient requires a mastoidectomy, the doctor will remove the contaminated portion of the bone using specific equipment. This removes the infection and ensures that it does not create further difficulties. After the required repairs are completed, sutures seal the incision behind the ear.
Following surgery, you have to stay in the recovery area to have your vital signs and other symptoms continuously monitored. You may have some discomfort or pain after surgery. Your surgeon may prescribe pain relievers to alleviate your discomfort. Additionally, our team will provide you with extensive post-operative treatment guidance. Recovery from mastoidectomy and tympanoplasty usually takes 1-2 weeks. A preliminary follow-up session is recommended for suture removal one week following surgery.
