Popis: Modified Bondy mastoidectomy is a type of canal wall down mastoidectomy well described in literature for adult patients. We present our experience with the use of modified Bondy mastoidectomy in pediatric population. Using retrospective chart review, pediatric patients, who underwent modified Bondy procedure for attic cholesteatoma between 1983 and 2015 at our quaternary referral center for otology and lateral skull base surgery, were analyzed after obtaining permission from institutional review board. The demographic data, air–bone gap before and after surgery (at a follow up of 1 month, 6 months, 2 year and 5 years), intraoperative findings and postoperative outcomes were recorded. A total of 36 (5.8%) pediatric cholesteatoma patients underwent Modified Bondy procedure. Out of these, 5-year follow up was available for 31 patients and they were included in audiological analysis. Air–bone gap was maintained at preoperative levels or improve in all the patients during follow up and there were no incidences of sensorineural hearing loss. Two patients (5.5%) were found to harbor residual cholesteatoma and two patients (6.4%) of the 31 patients who had follow up of 5 years, developed recurrent disease during follow up. Modified Bondy procedure, when done in appropriately selected patients, is a reliable, effective and reasonably safe technique for pediatric cholesteatoma.
