Selection of RMR or ICW may not affect recidivism and hearing outcomes in cholesteatoma with minimal mastoid extension. Bony defect size and attic narrowness were not associated with recurrence. Considering wider visualization and one-staged operation, RMR can be more adaptable than ICW for cholesteatoma with minimal mastoid extension.
