[Value of magnetic resonance imaging associated with x-ray computed tomography in the screening of residual cholesteatoma after primary surgery].

Several recent studies have described the magnetic resonance imagery (MRI) of cholesteatomas. For certain authors the MR images are specific after Gadolinium injection. This radio-surgical study included 16 patients who underwent a tympanoplasty with supra and retromeatic masto-attictomy for a cholesteatoma and for whom a second operation was planned. Computed tomography (CT) and MRI was performed before operation in all patients with and...
