Outcomes and measures of success in cholesteatoma surgery are often described using objective data, while subjective data are mostly lacking
.
In cholesteatoma treatment, patient experience and complaints become increasingly important along with clinical and audiometric findings
.
Here, researchers from the University of Amsterdam and other units in the Netherlands explored the course of patient complaints, the impact of their complaints and audiometry, and the stability of audiometry, as well as changes over time in primary and recurrent/residual cholesteatoma after surgery
.
The findings were published in the journal Otology & Neurotology
.

Postoperative patients were prospectively enrolled and divided into primary acquired cholesteatoma and recurrent/residual cholesteatoma
.
144 patients completed the EuroQol 5D (EQ-5D-3L), the Amsterdam Otology Questionnaire (OQUA) and the Linguistic Spatial Questionnaire (SSQ) within 2 years of surgery

Figure 1 Patient characteristics of patients with cholesteatoma in this studyResults showed that, over time, hearing loss and tinnitus were the most reported postoperative complaints
.
The effects of patient-reported taste loss and all complaints decreased over time
.
Pure-tone hearing thresholds, but not asymmetric hearing loss, were associated with the localization domain of the SSQ
