What is Otology?
Otology is the branch of ENT that deals with the structure, function, and diseases of the ear. It includes the study of the:
- External ear

- Vestibulocochlear nerve (CN VIII)
A solid understanding of otology is essential for evaluating and managing conditions such as Otitis externa, Otitis media, Hearing loss, Tinnitus, Vertigo, Cholesteatoma, Tympanic membrane perforations, and Otosclerosis.
Otology is also critical for interpreting audiological tests like pure tone audiometry, impedance audiometry, and BERA, and for performing microscopic ear surgeries.
Here you’ll find neatly organized notes on:
- Anatomy of Ear
- Auditory and vestibular physiology
- Embryology of Ear
- Diseases of Ear
- Diagnostic tests (tuning forks etc.)
- Audiology
- Surgeries of Ear (e.g., myringotomy, mastoidectomy)
- Clinical correlations
All notes are designed for fast revision and deep conceptual clarity.
