Adult patients referred to the ENT surgery department of the Hospices Civils de Lyon with cholesteatoma that had never been operated on. All patients will benefit from surgical management for cholesteatoma initially in the operating room under general anesthesia. The surgical technique (closed technique) is the reference technique for the management of cholesteatoma in adults. It involves a cartilaginous removal to reconstruct the attical region. Then a filling material is used to fill the mastoid (GlassBONE™ or Bonalive™), and above all to stabilize the cartilaginous fragment to prevent a recurrence.
