Abstract
The etiology of cholesteatoma is still enigmatic. Of the current theor ies, none has been confirmed with adequately convincing evidence. A co mpletely suitable animal model has not hitherto been available and the re is still a need for further experimental studies of this entity. As a possible experimental model we suggest dimethyl-benzanthracene indu ced cholesteatoma in the rat.
