English term

Radical cavity

English to Czech Medical Medical (general) ORL
Individuals treated for chronic mastoiditis with a radical cavity may be unable to use conventional AC aids because the ear canal could become occluded, thus aggravating their condition.

Je to z příručky pro lékaře. Nejsem si úplně jistý, co přesně radical cavity označuje (a jak se to správně jmenuje česky). Předem děkuji za pomoc.

Well, I am wondering what they mean by "radical" here!

http://www.patient.co.uk/doctor/Mastoid-and-Mastoiditis.htm

Mastoidectomy can be:[1]
Simple: infected mastoid air cells are removed.
Radical: the tympanic membrane and most middle ear structures are removed and the Eustachian tube is closed.
Modified: the ossicles and part of the tympanic membrane is preserved.
