Ossiculoplasty is one of the most delicate procedures in otologic surgery. It is performed to reconstruct the middle ear hearing bones (ossicles) when they have been damaged by chronic otitis media, cholesteatoma, longstanding inflammation, or previous surgery. When successful, ossiculoplasty can lead to meaningful hearing improvement and improved quality of life. However, outcomes remain notoriously difficult to predict. This is because hearing restoration does not depend on

An EurAsia Group Scientific Initiative Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is widely regarded as one of the most treatable vestibular disorders. In daily clinical practice, canalith repositioning procedures often resolve positional vertigo rapidly and effectively. Yet a familiar clinical paradox remains. A substantial proportion of patients continue to report imbalance, unsteadiness, or vague dizziness despite apparent clinical recovery. This phenomenon, commonly refe

Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is one of the most challenging inflammatory diseases encountered in rhinology. Although nasal polyps are often grouped under a single diagnosis, experienced clinicians know that not all polyps behave the same. Some recur rapidly, some remain localized, and others respond poorly to both surgery and medical therapy. To address this clinical gap, the EurAsia Group has contributed to a landmark study proposing a new, clinically re

Sinonasal osteoblastoma is among the rarest bone tumors of the head and neck, accounting for less than 1 percent of all maxillofacial tumors. Because so few cases exist worldwide, most of the available knowledge comes from isolated case reports. This has left clinicians with limited guidance on how to diagnose and manage the disease, especially when tumors extend near critical structures such as the orbit or skull base. Patients typically present with symptoms like nasal obst

Sudden sensorineural hearing loss is an otologic emergency that can appear without warning. It is defined as a rapid decline in hearing of more than 30 decibels across three consecutive frequencies within a period of three days or less. Many patients also experience tinnitus, which can be just as distressing as the hearing loss itself. For decades, oral corticosteroids have been the standard treatment. While effective for many patients, systemic steroids carry notable risks,
