There is marked diversity in the reported success rates for achieving an intact tympanic membrane following myringoplasty. Controversy exists about the factors thought to influence surgical outcome. Both of these facts have important implications for obtaining informed consent prior to surgery.This study reviews the factors thought to determine the ...

We analyzed those failures occurring in 417 myringoplasties. Forty-four drum re-perforations were found (10.6%), half of which occurred immediately after operation. Causes of these early failures included necrosis in the middle of the graft without infection (10 ears) and blunting of the anterior margins of the graft (7 ears).

The results of myringoplasty on 172 ears examined after an average follow-up time of 1.5 years are reported. The fascial underlay technique with swing-door plasty was employed in 78% of the cases. The graft take was successful in 150 ears (87%), three of which (2%) later revealed adhesive changes in the middle ear.

AbstractThis retrospective study was undertaken to review the short- and long-term results of 70 revision and 16 re-revision myringoplasty operations. Of the former, 43 cases (61.4 per cent) had initial success, six weeks following surgery. The leading causes of immediate failure (27 cases) were associated with a complete no- take of thegraft ...

Tympanic membrane perforation (TMP) may be caused by acute and chronic otitis media, trauma and iatrogenic reasons. The goal of myringoplasty is to achieve a dry, self-cleansing ear with intact TM while preserving hearing. Literature review of myringoplasty outcome demonstrates results with different success rates and affecting factors.The aim of this ...

Clinical Otolaryngology, 1976
Myringoplasty is a deceptively difficult procedure in which surgical finesse and experience dictate success in terms of hearing improvement as well as closure rate. In essence, it is the complete removal of epidermal ingrowth followed by the placement of a non-epithelialized graft on the medial surface of the tympanic membrane which has withstood the ...

Myringoplasty in the Pediatric Population
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1987The long-term results of myringoplasty in children, including closure of perforation and hearing improvement, were reviewed in relation to age, condition of the operated-on ear, and condition of the untreated ear. The overall success rate in 155 operations evaluated one year postoperatively was 79%.

Transtympanic myringoplasty in children
International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology, 1997Our experience with myringoplasty by the transtympanic "push through' technique in paediatric patients is described. We have used this method in 40 children utilizing autologous temporalis fascia as the graft material. The procedures were all performed as day cases under general anaesthesia. The overall success rate for perforation closure was 77.5% at

New Perspectives in Myringoplasty
The International Journal of Artificial Organs, 1984Until 1950 the treatment of a perforated eardrum consisted of covering the drum permanently with artificial material. Since then a surgical technique to establish a functional reconstruction of the eardrum was developed (myringoplasty). A survey of the biological grafting materials used in this technique is given.

Paediatric Myringoplasty in India
Auris Nasus Larynx, 1991In comparison to chronic non-suppurative otitis media, the incidence of chronic suppurative otitis media is no less in developing countries. This is due to lack of consciousness, low socioeconomic condition, and increased susceptibility to upper respiratory tract infection.
