The intraoperative patency of the aditus was assessed by microscope and 30º Error! Not a valid embedded object.otoendoscope. Results: 20 (80%) patients of endoscopic group compared to 10 (40%) patients in microscopic group showed graft take with statistically significant difference (p = 0.025). Conclusion: Otoendoscopyis a minimally invasive surgery and could be utilized efficiently to improve the visibility of aditus and then dealing with any pathology in mucosal COM with sclerosed mastoid during tympanoplasty.
