Otitis media of the left ear was diagnosed by video otoscopic examination in a 7-year-old, intact male Shih-tzu dog (weight, 5.1 kg), that also had three complex ceruminous adenomas and a Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in the left ear canal. In such cases, total ear canal ablation is usually required. However, a complete cure was achieved in the present case without total ear canal ablation. The complex ceruminous adenomas were excised using a diode laser, and repeated cleansing of the tympanic cavity and ear canal was implemented using a video otoscope. As a result, the ear canal was closed in a U-form, and the otitis media was cured.
