ABSTRACT
Muscle obliteration of the troublesome mastoid cavity is one method of achieving a permanently dry ear, although long-term results are often disappointing. An operation is described, which is a modification of existing techniques and utilizes a temporalis myofascial flap. This procedure has been used on 46 discharging mastoid cavities and produced encouraging results. It provides a simple, safe and reliable solution to the problem.
