introduction: to demonstrate surgical techniques and to compare the anatomical and functional outcomes between temporalis fascia and cartilage palisade grafting in type-i underlay tympanoplasty in patients with large/subtotal perforation.materials and methods:temporalis fascia and cartilage palisade grafting were conducted in group a and group b, respectively, each containing 30 patients with l...

Abstract Background Various grafting materials and different techniques have been used for myringoplasty. The aim of the study was to compare result tympanoplasty in patients with safe-type chronic suppurative otitis media using periosteum versus tragal cartilage perichondrium grafts through pre- postoperative clinical audiological evaluation. Results There statistically significant difference ...

Background: Nausea and vomiting are common complications of anesthesia and surgery. Patients undergoing tympanoplasty are exposed to a higher risk of postoperative nausea vomiting (PONV). These complications may alter the results of reconstruction and anatomical alignments. Numerous antiemetics have been studied to prevent and treat PONV in patients undergoing tympanoplasty. The aim of this stu...

Introduction: There are a few studies that compare the outcomes between primary and revision tympanoplasties. The purpose of the present study was to compare the results of type I tympanoplasty (i.e., synonymous to myringoplasty) and revision myringoplasty based on the closure of tympanic membrane perforation and hearing improvement. Materials and Methods: Thisprospective single-blind study was...

introduction: to describe the underlay tympanoplasty technique using an acellular dermal graft(alloderm) for tympanic membrane (tm) reconstruction in a guinea pig model and to demonstrate the feasibility of the technique using alloderm tissue harvested from the prepuce as a source of tissue for future grafting in human tm reconstruction.   materials and methods: the prepuce was divided during c...
