(¡¡) Peak Compliance
At presentation, 21 ears (42%) in conventional curettage had abnormal peak compliance while 24 ears (48%) in endoscopic microdebrider assisted group had an abnormal peak compliance. Comparison between the groups yielded a p value of 0.549 which is not statistically significant. At first follow up 7 ears(14%) in conventional group and 4 ears (8%) in endoscopic microdebrider assisted group had abnormal peak compliance (p value 0.340 = not significant). At second follow up, 4 ears (8%) in conventional curettage group and 3 ears (6%) in endoscopic microdebrider assisted group had abnormal compliance (p value 0.697 = not significant). (Table 2)
