Abstract

Until it is accepted that many of the recommendations for surgical treatment of middle ear disease, based on impressions formed twenty years ago, are misleading, attempts to rationalize the use of hospital resources will be little more than cosmesis. Responsibility for the initiation of cost-effective reform is primarily that of surgeons and requires urgent self-audit and the provision of realistic advice to patients (and administrators) as to what benefits microsurgery of the ear can offer.
