Correlative Study of HRCT in Attico-Antral Disease

Abstract

There is lot of controversy over the utility of pre-operative radiology in management of attico-antral disease. This study was done to find correlation between pre-operative HRCT and intra-operative findings in patients with attico-antral disease. Study revealed varying degrees of sensitivity and sensitivity for different aspects of the disease. We conclude that though HRCT given good visualization of the key areas, high levels of false positive and false negative prevent the wholesome reliability on it. © 2011 Association of Otolaryngologists of India.
