An avoidable occupational hazard during mastoid surgery.

F J Lannigan1, N S Jones, M V von Schoenberg.   

Abstract

Conjunctival innoculation is a previously unrecognized hazard for the otologist during mastoid surgery. This experiment assess the spread of droplet contamination during temporal bone dissection. The results suggest that otologists and assistants should wear eye protection during exposure of the mastoid antrum by drilling.
