Overview

Review demonstrates postoperative CT findings in temporal bone surgery patients, highlighting expected structural alterations across mastoidectomy, ossicular reconstruction, and cochlear implantation.

Key Points

Familiarize radiologists with common neurootologic surgical procedures and describe expected postoperative computed tomography findings.
Reviewed anatomical alterations resulting from mastoidectomy, ossicular chain reconstruction, and cochlear implantation.
Evaluated high-resolution temporal bone computed tomography features, surgical indications, and anatomical landmarks specific to each intervention.
Characterized normal postoperative appearances and structural disruptions associated with distinct neurootologic procedures on CT.
Identified key differentiating CT features necessary to distinguish expected postsurgical modifications from persistent or recurrent pathology.
