We describe an endaural technique for soft tissue and bony meatoplasty and canalplasty in the surgical management of chronic otitis externa unresponsive to medical treatment and out-patient microsuction. Following analysis of the surgical outcome via a retrospective review of patient records, we would recommend this surgical treatment in this patient group.
