I don't think undergoing sinus surgery is going to cure your brothers ear problem which is most of the times permanent. sometimes it may reduce number of infective episodes in ear. but hole in the ear drum if long standing won't close unless operated. endoscopic sinus surgery cost depends on the surgeon who is operating and centre where surgery is done. cost may range from 10k to 50k.
