Removal of implant; superficial (e.g., buried wire, pin or rod)

Removal of implant; superficial (e.g., buried wire, pin or rod) is a minor surgical procedure to extract hardware such as wires, pins, or rods that are located just beneath the skin and were previously placed to support bone healing. These implants are typically removed once healing is complete or if they cause discomfort, irritation, or risk of infection. The procedure involves a small incision under local or general anesthesia, depending on the location and complexity.

When Is a Mastoidectomy Necessary?

Patients may consider a mastoidectomy if they have mastoiditis and it is not responding to antibiotics. If left untreated, the infection could spread to other areas of the skull. Therefore, it is important to be proactive in your treatment and ensure to consult your physician on different treatment options.

A mastoidectomy is necessary if:

  • The patient has chronic mastoiditis
  • The patient’s condition is not responding to antibiotics
  • The infection is spreading
