Why consider treatment in India?
Many international patients consider India for chronic middle ear disease treatment for several reasons, including:
More affordable estimates
Competitive indicative costs compared with many other countries, for similar clinical standards.
Internationally accredited hospitals
Hospitals experienced in treating international patients.
Experienced specialists
Doctors who regularly manage similar cases.
Care coordination support
A team to help with planning, medical translation and follow-up.
About the Procedure
What is Mastoidectomy?
Mastoidectomy is a surgical procedure to remove infected or diseased mastoid air cells behind the ear, most commonly performed to treat chronic middle ear infections (chronic suppurative otitis media) and cholesteatoma. It helps eliminate infection, prevent serious complications such as facial nerve damage or intracranial spread, and, in select cases, preserve or improve hearing. The technique used depends on the extent of disease and the anatomy of the ear canal.
Who may be considered?
Mastoidectomy may be considered after a qualified specialist reviews your reports and medical history. Suitability varies from person to person and must be assessed by your treating doctor.
How does it work?
The mastoid is cleared of disease while keeping the natural ear canal wall intact, preserving normal ear canal anatomy and often allowing better hearing rehabilitation.
3 approaches available for this procedure:
Canal Wall Up (Intact Canal Wall) Mastoidectomy
Most PopularThe mastoid is cleared of disease while keeping the natural ear canal wall intact, preserving normal ear canal anatomy and often allowing better hearing rehabilitation.
Comprehensive Investigations
Estimated cost: $150 - $400
Pure tone audiometry, tympanometry, CT temporal bone, CBC, ECG, blood sugar and coagulation profile, ENT endoscopy
Treatment / Procedure Estimate
Estimated cost in India: $2,800 - $4,500
Stay in India
Pre-procedure stay (outside hospital): ~1 day
Hospitalisation: ~2-3 days
Recovery period (outside hospital): ~10-14 days recommended
Total stay: approx 12-18 days
Usually Included in Hospital Package
- Surgeon and anesthetist fees
- Operating room and microscope/endoscope charges
- Standard hospital room stay
- Routine post-op medications
- One follow-up consultation
Usually Not Included
- Pre-operative investigations and imaging
- Hearing aid or ossicular prosthesis if needed
- Extended ICU stay if complications arise
- Travel, visa, and accommodation outside hospital
- Long-term audiology follow-up visits
Recovery and follow-up
Most patients can resume light activities within 1-2 weeks, while full recovery and hearing stabilization may take 4-8 weeks; ear packing removal and follow-up audiometry are typically scheduled during this period. Swimming, diving, and air travel should be avoided until the surgeon confirms the ear has fully healed.
Risks
Potential risks include hearing loss, facial nerve injury, dizziness, taste disturbance, persistent ear discharge, or recurrence of disease requiring revision surgery. Serious complications such as meningitis or brain abscess are rare but possible in advanced or infected cases.
Alternatives
In mild or early cases, prolonged medical therapy with antibiotics and regular ear cleaning may be tried before surgery, though it often fails to resolve cholesteatoma or recurrent chronic infection. Tympanoplasty alone (without mastoid surgery) may be an option when mastoid involvement is minimal.
What we need to prepare a formal estimate
Share whatever you have — the care team will confirm the final checklist after reviewing your case.

Common questions
FAQs about Mastoidectomy in India
What is Chronic Middle Ear Disease?
Chronic middle ear disease refers to a group of long-standing conditions affecting the middle ear — the air-filled space behind the eardrum — in which ongoing inflammation, infection, or structural damage persists for months or years. The most serious subtype, cholesteatoma, involves abnormal skin cell growth that can erode bone and surrounding structures if not treated.
What are the symptoms and health risks of Chronic Middle Ear Disease?
Common presentations include persistent or intermittent ear discharge (otorrhoea), varying degrees of hearing loss, a sensation of fullness or pressure in the ear, and occasionally ear pain or tinnitus. In more advanced cases — particularly with cholesteatoma — dizziness, facial weakness, or worsening neurological symptoms may indicate spread beyond the middle ear. It is important to note that symptom pattern and severity alone are not sufficient to establish the specific diagnosis or determine how far the disease has progressed; a thorough clinical assessment is required.
How is Chronic Middle Ear Disease diagnosed?
Diagnosis typically begins with a detailed otoscopic examination, which may reveal eardrum perforation, retraction pockets, polyps, or the white pearly tissue characteristic of cholesteatoma. Audiometric testing — including pure-tone audiometry and tympanometry — is used to quantify hearing loss and assess middle ear function. High-resolution CT scanning of the temporal bone is often essential to map the extent of bony involvement and guide surgical planning, while MRI may be used where intracranial spread or soft tissue involvement is suspected.
How is Chronic Middle Ear Disease treated?
The appropriate management pathway depends on the specific diagnosis, disease extent, degree of hearing loss, and the patient's overall health — and must be determined by a qualified specialist after individual assessment. Milder forms of chronic suppurative otitis media without cholesteatoma may initially be managed with medical therapy and close monitoring, while cholesteatoma and cases with significant structural damage or mastoid involvement typically require surgical intervention such as mastoidectomy or advanced middle ear reconstructive surgery. Hearing rehabilitation, including hearing aids or ossicular chain reconstruction, may form part of the treatment plan regardless of whether surgery is performed.
Can Chronic Middle Ear Disease be treated without a procedure?
Non-surgical management has a meaningful role in certain presentations — particularly uncomplicated CSOM with an intact or only mildly perforated eardrum — and may include topical antibiotic or antiseptic ear drops, systemic antibiotics for acute flare-ups, and regular aural toilet (ear cleaning) performed by a clinician. However, when cholesteatoma is confirmed, or when bony erosion, recurrent infections, or significant hearing deterioration are present, non-surgical approaches are generally insufficient to arrest disease progression and surgery is typically recommended.
When is Mastoidectomy considered for Chronic Middle Ear Disease?
Mastoidectomy may be considered only when it is appropriate for the confirmed diagnosis and the expected benefit outweighs the individual risks. The decision may depend on symptom severity, investigation results, previous treatment, overall health and the patient's goals. A specialist should discuss alternatives and recovery before any procedure is planned.
Which doctor treats Chronic Middle Ear Disease?
Chronic middle ear disease is evaluated and managed by an otolaryngologist (ENT surgeon), ideally one with subspecialty experience in otology or neurotology — the surgical disciplines focused specifically on ear disease and hearing disorders. In complex cases involving hearing reconstruction or suspected intracranial complications, management may involve a multidisciplinary team including an audiologist and, where relevant, a neurosurgeon.
How do I choose a doctor for Chronic Middle Ear Disease?
When selecting a specialist, it is worth asking about their specific experience with the type and extent of middle ear disease you have been found to have — including their volume of mastoidectomy and middle ear reconstruction procedures — as well as the availability of intraoperative facial nerve monitoring and post-operative audiological follow-up at their centre.
What documents do international patients need to share for a medical evaluation?
Share a concise medical summary, symptom timeline, previous diagnoses, investigation and imaging reports, procedure or biopsy reports where relevant, current medicines, allergies and related treatment records. Provide clear copies with translations when needed. The reviewing doctor may request additional information before giving an opinion.
How does GAF Healthcare help international patients plan treatment in India?
Our care coordination team can review the initial information, help identify suitable doctors and hospitals, request a medical opinion where available, explain next steps and indicative cost information, and support practical planning before travel. A remote opinion does not replace an in-person examination or emergency care.
