Significance of the middle ear risk index in predicting tympanoplasty success in the elderly
European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2020To evaluate the relationship between middle ear risk index (MERI) score and success of tympanoplasty in elderly (≥ 60 years) compared with young patients (18-59 years) and to investigate the prognostic factors affecting the success of tympanoplasty.Patients were subdivided into three subgroups according to the MERI score as follows: mild (0-3 ...

Middle ear risk index (MERI) as a prognostic factor for tympanoplasty success in children
International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology, 2021Tympanoplasty performed in childhood has been controversial over the years because there is no clarity in determining what prognostic factors lead to surgical success. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the Middle Ear Risk Index (MERI) score on the success of pediatric tympanoplasty.

In ossiculoplasty with intact stapes, using autologous incus, cortex bone chips and plastipore partial ossicular reconstruction prostheses, improvement in hearing was nearly equal. In patients who had mild risk scores, the incus had better gain values compared with patients who had severe scores.We aimed to prove the utility of the middle ear risk ...
