Cholesteatoma Is Associated With Pediatric Progressive Sensorineural Hearing Loss

Conclusions: The statistical analyses demonstrated an association between cholesteatoma and pediatric progressive sensorineural hearing loss. These findings inform clinical management by suggesting that children with cholesteatoma diagnoses may be at increased risk for progressive sensorineural hearing loss and should receive continued monitoring even after a normal masked BC baseline has been established.
