Abstract

Fifty cases of unsafe chrome suppurative otitis media who underwent mastoid surgery were taken up for the study. All the ossicles in these cases were studied grossly under X6 magnification and fifty two ossicles removed during operation were studied histologically.

The gross and histopathological observations of these ossicles are presented.
