“…Presenting a series of studies on a topic of interest at international conferences and publishing them in academic journals can yield significant feedback from international colleagues. Personally, the author has applied this methodology to publish multiple articles on the topic of cholesteatoma and consistently receive constructive feedback from esteemed international peers [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30]. Through this approach, researchers can refine their craft, hone their skills, and expand their influence in the academic community.…”

In my medical school days, I was constantly exposed to stories about alumni who had made significant achievements in the international academic community. I was deeply intrigued by the journeys that led to these individuals' achievements. How have they overcome countless obstacles and become leaders in their fields? However, few resources were available to guide young doctors down this path. Neither medical school nor professors could prepare us for the long and arduous journey ahead [1][2][3]. This lack of support has left many young doctors feeling disillusioned and burnt out, leading them to abandon their academic aspirations [4].Every individual has the potential to make significant contributions to their respective fields, regardless of whether they are destined for international recognition. The aim of this article is to provide mentorship, guidance, and resources to young doctors so that their passion and drive can lead to a successful and fulfilling academic career. A support system will enable the next generation of doctors to compete successfully in the academic world [3]. GLOBAL CONFERENCES ADVANCE CAREERSI have come to acknowledge the paramount importance of participating in and presenting at international conferences. Guided by the sage advice of seasoned mentors and engaging in intellectual cross-pollination with colleagues hailing from diverse corners of the world, I have realized that these gatherings are indispensable for gaining global acclaim for one's contributions [5].In my own journey, I have discovered that international conferences afford unparalleled opportunities for medical professionals to gain in-sights from their counterparts. Concurrently, these forums facilitate networking with eminent individuals possessing a diverse array of expertise. By sharing research findings or dissecting clinical cases, both researchers and clinicians can obtain constructive feedback, enhance their understanding, and garner acknowledgment [6]. Such interactions may sow the seeds for future collaborations or employment prospects [7].Undeniably, the prospect of attending international conferences can be intimidating and financially burdensome, particularly for young medical practitioners. Therefore, it is essential to explore funding opportunities, such as scholarships or travel grants, and plan ahead to maximize the utilization of conference resources [8]. I firmly believe that international conferences are a vital component of a thriving medicine career.

“…The fact that the retraction pocket was clean and had a bottom area that was clearly visible led a non-competent ear specialist to falsely conclude that the retraction pocket was safe. The delay in diagnosing cholesteatoma for several years could have resulted in serious complications [9][10][11][12][13]. This case report has straightforward clinical implications.…”

“…The subsequent formation of a cholesteatoma may obstruct the opening of the pocket, thereby inducing ingrowth expansion into the middle ear cleft [8]. Undiscovered or untreated cholesteatomas may grow dangerously large and/or invade intratemporal structures, which can lead to intra-and extra-cranial complications [8][9][10][11][12].…”
