Is the Tragal Cartilage Necessary for Type 1 Tympanoplasties?
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2012The use of cartilage grafts in tympanoplasties is recommended in cases with a higher probability of failure. Many grafting techniques have been reported, including palisade, cartilage island, and cartilage shield grafts. Cartilage minimizes the inflammatory tissue reaction, ensures resistance against infection during the recovery process, and provides ...

Tragal Perichondrium and Cartilage in Tympanoplasty
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1967SINCE THE introduction of tympanoplastic surgery, a number of varieties of tissue pedicles, autografts, and homografts have been advocated. The original use of postauricular skin has been replaced, in many centers, by other tissues, largely mesodermal in character. It seems timely to call attention to the natural forces for tympanic membrane growth as

Clinical Otolaryngology, 1991
Extrusion of plastic or ceramic implants is a significant cause of failure in ossiculoplasty for chronic ear disease. This paper reports the use of a composite tragal cartilage and perichondrial autograft compared to cartilage or bone paste between the graft and tympanic membrane.

Tragal Cartilage Reconstruction of the Auditory Canal
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1969THE ADVANTAGES of preservation of the bony posterior wall of the external auditory canal during surgery for chronic infection have been stressed by many authors. 1-4 Unfortunately this part of the external canal is often partially destroyed by infection or cholesteatoma or must necessarily be removed to ensure adequate control of attic or mastoid ...

The use of tragal cartilage in ossicular reconstruction
The Laryngoscope, 1976AbstractReadily available tragal cartilage has been found to be a very beneficial autogenous graft source for construction of prostheses to correct those defects in the ossicular chain that frequently occur when the incudostapedial joint is destroyed by middle ear pathology, particularly by the retraction of the posterior, superior quadrant of the ...

Use of Tragal Cartilage With the Total Ossicular Replacement Prosthesis
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1978A method was developed for the use of tragal cartilage and perichondrium with the total ossicular replacement prosthesis. The method involves securing the flat base of the prosthesis in a perichondrial tunnel on the cartilage to stabilize the prosthesis, prevent extrusion, and promote vascularization.

Tragal cartilage harvesting and ‘in the ear’ earphones: a pilot study
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 2006‘In the ear’ headphones are held in position by the cartilaginous skeleton of the pinna. The tragus is an important part of this skeleton and plays a significant role in holding these devices in place. We designed a retrospective case–control study to determine whether the harvesting of tragal cartilage had any effect on the ability to wear ‘in the ear’

Average thickness of tragal cartilage for slicing techniques in tympanoplasty
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 2015AbstractBackground:Cartilage-perichondrial grafts are often used for tympanic membrane and middle-ear reconstructions. Tragal and conchal cartilages are most frequently used for this purpose. Studies have shown that slicing the cartilage to less than 0.5 mm thickness improves acoustic benefit.

Tragal perichondrium and cartilage in reconstructive ear surgery
The Laryngoscope, 1978AbstractTwo hundred and fifty‐five ear operations using tragal perichondrium and cartilage for reconstruction are presented. Of these, 108 were myringoplasties, 137 were tympanoplasties with ossicular reconstruction performed by nine different methods, and 10 were tympanoplasties with reconstruction of posterior canal wall defects left by radical ...
