A member asked:
Is ear endoscopy considered minor surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Only in middle ear: If it is just a procedure to look in the ear with an endoscope then it's not surgery at all. If the doctor needs to look in the middle ear and lift the ear drum up out of the way, that it is a minor operation.
