[The management in chronic otitis media complicated by labyrinthine fistula].

12 cases of the labyrinthine fistulae from 88 patients operated due to chronic otitis media with cholesteatoma were presented. All patients underwent canal wall dawn technique. In 3 cases the radical ear operation was performed. Other 9 patients were operated by modified radical ear operation with simultaneous tympanoplasty. The frequency and location of labyrinthine fistulae were estimated in chronic otitis media based on own material and literature. The different operating methods were analysed and their influence on the inner ear function was emphasised.
