Abstract
-Endoscopic ear surgery is often described as minimally invasive, which may reduce postoperative pain -VAS pain scores related to endoscopic ear surgery were lower than those related to microscopic ear surgery in our cohort within the first post-operative week -At day one, two and seven, analgesia requirements were lower in the endoscopic ear surgery group than the microscopic ear surgery group -Opioid analgesia requirement was lower in the endoscopic ear surgery group than the microscopic ear surgery group at days one and two post-operatively -Due to the differing applications of endoscopic and microscopic ear surgery, further research may be required to study the influence of type of surgery, degree of bone removal and approach on pain after ear surgery.
