Postoperative Result for Tympanic Membrane Perforation
Ears with tympanic membrane perforation show a wide range of pathophysiology from simple perforation to mobility impairment of the ossicular chain complicated by sclerotic and/or inflammatory lesions of the middle ear. In surgery on such ears, we determine checkpoints and proceed based on the order of procedure.

Beyond Bioactive Glass Composition: Using Morphology to Improve In Vitro and In Vivo Performance
Bioactive glasses can easily be shaped into granules, spheres, discs, fibers, or three‐dimensional scaffolds. The resulting morphology not only affects handling properties; it has a direct influence on various glass properties, including results of acellular immersion experiments or in vitro studies with cells or bacteria, but also on in vivo ...

Pediatric Complications of Automated Tympanostomy Tube Systems: MAUDE Analysis and Systematic Review
Automated tympanostomy tube delivery systems (TDS) were developed to streamline in‐office procedures, but their effectiveness remains uncertain due to challenges with achieving adequate anesthesia and immobility in pediatric patients. While postprocedural complication rates were comparable to traditional tympanostomy tubes, concerns regarding ...

Patient Self‐Recorded Digital Otoscopy in Otology Diagnostics
Patient self‐recorded digital otoscopy (DO) was compared to DO performed by an ENT resident. In general, the quality was greater in the recordings by the resident, but for some pathologies, the diagnostic accuracy was similar in both groups. ABSTRACT Objectives To study whether patient self‐recorded digital otoscopy (PDO) is a reliable diagnostic tool ...
