The cost of ear cholesteatoma surgery is around$20,000. Cholesteatoma surgery requires tracheal intubation and general anesthesia, so routine preoperative tests need to be completed, and the cost is around$1,000. If there are underlying diseases such as hypertension and heart disease, the cost will increase as appropriate. The cost of general anesthesia is around 5,000 yuan and the cost of cholesteatoma removal is 3,000 yuan. Post-operative treatment such as anti-infection, hemostasis, and drug exchange will also be given at a cost of about RMB 3,000. After discharge from the hospital, the patient will have to continue the medication to consolidate the treatment and regular review at a cost of 2,000 RMB. However, if the patient’s prognosis is poor, the cost and duration of treatment may increase, so the total cost may fluctuate.
