초록

Hearing aids are becoming more popular as the elderly population grows, but complicationsrelated to their use are also increasing. We present a rare case where an ear mold impressionentered the mastoid cavity during fitting, causing delayed inflammation about 10 years later. Unlike most reported cases, this patient did not experience immediate symptoms during theimpression-making process. Our case highlights the importance of thorough physical exami-nation by an otolaryngologist, including assessment of the tympanic membrane and externalauditory canal, when fitting hearing aids to prevent similar complications.

Unlike most reported cases, this patient did not experience immediate symptoms during theimpression-making process. Our case highlights the importance of thorough physical exami-nation by an otolaryngologist, including assessment of the tympanic membrane and externalauditory canal, when fitting hearing aids to prevent similar complications.
