Napoleon had surgery on both ears.  Since both ear canals have been completely removed he is now completely deaf. That said, he is now much more comfortable without the masses (that were causing him some pain) and without the infection.  The biopsies of both ear canals did unfortunately come back as a type of cancer called ceruminous gland adenocarcinomas, but not entirely unexpected in light of the chronic history of ear disease prior to his arrival.  The surgical excision on both ears was complete with clean surgical margins (no tumor cells left behind), but due to the malignant nature of this disease his prognosis is still guarded.  He will have close monitoring in the future with chest x-rays and exams to ensure there are no new growths in the region of his ear canals.  He is on antibiotics, pain medication and eye lubrication to keep his tear production normal as he heals from the surgery.
