COMPARATIVE STUDY OF DIFFERENT GRAFT MATERIALS IN MYRINGOPLASTY- TYPE I TYMPANOPLASTY

A comparative study of different graft materials used in myringoplasty.

Two hundred twenty cases of unilateral chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) with dry central perforation were chosen for this study and myringoplasty were done. Age group ranged from 13 to 48 years. Four types of autogenous tissues were used as graft material. Grafting was done by underlay technique when temporalis fascia, tragal perichondrium, areolar tissue were used as graft material and ...

Outcome of different graft materials used in Myringoplasty

Aim: To compare the result of graft materials i.e. temporalis fascia, tragal perichondrium and ear lobule fat in various aspects but the prime interest would be the closure of tympanic membrane perforation and postoperative hearing improvement. Materials and methods: The study was carried out on 60 patients admitted for myringoplasty as per selection criteria in the Department of Ear Nose and T...

Comparative Outcome of Temporal Fascia and Tragal Cartilage Graft in Type 1 Tympanoplasty

Materials and method: One hundred and twenty patients who had undergone type 1 tympanoplasty using temporal fascia and tragal cartilage were retrospectively reviewed. Eighty seven patients underwent tympanoplasty using temporal fascia graft while in 33 patients, tragal cartilage with perichondrium was employed. Graft take up was analyzed at 6 weeks post-operatively, in both the groups. Pre-oper...
