Ear Surgery in Istanbul
Careful, conservative ear operations, including ear tube surgery, planned after a personal examination.
Who ear surgery is for
Ear surgery covers a range of operations on the ear. Among them is ear tube surgery, a short procedure in which a small ventilation tube is placed in the eardrum when fluid persists behind it or infections keep returning and medical treatment has not resolved the problem.
Persistent fluid can muffle hearing and cause pressure and discomfort; recurring infections wear patients down. Whether surgery is appropriate, and which operation, depends entirely on the examination of your ear.
What to expect at your first visit
Dr. Teker examines your ears directly, reviews your history of infections or hearing complaints, and tells you honestly whether an operation would help or whether continued medical treatment serves you better. If surgery is advised, he explains the procedure, its purpose and its aftercare personally, and answers every question before anything is decided.
Frequently asked questions
What does an ear tube do?
It ventilates the middle ear through the eardrum, letting persistent fluid drain and pressure equalize while the underlying problem settles. Whether a tube is appropriate in your case is determined at the examination.
Is ear tube surgery a big operation?
It is among the shorter, more routine ENT procedures, but every ear is examined and every decision made individually. Dr. Teker will explain what the procedure involves in your specific case.
Will surgery restore my hearing?
When hearing is muffled by fluid behind the eardrum, treating the fluid usually helps, but no honest surgeon promises an outcome before examining the ear. Dr. Teker will tell you what your examination shows.
