Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Otology

Background:

  • Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is a common condition in children.
  • Persistent tympanic membrane perforations can lead to hearing loss and recurrent infections.
  • Surgical repair of perforations, like myringoplasty, aims to restore hearing and middle ear function.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of myringoplasty using the onlay technique in children with chronic suppurative otitis media.
  • To assess graft success rates and hearing improvement following the procedure.

Main Methods:

  • A study involving 25 children aged 8-14 years with chronic suppurative otitis media.
  • Myringoplasty was performed using the onlay technique under general anesthesia.

  • Patients with specific exclusion criteria (e.g., enlarged adenoids, active infections) were excluded.

    • Main Results:

    • The study included children with dry, central perforations and healthy middle ear mucosa.
    • A graft uptake rate of 76% was observed after two months.
    • Patients who achieved graft success also demonstrated improvement in hearing levels.

    Conclusions:

    • Myringoplasty is a viable and effective surgical option for children suffering from chronic suppurative otitis media.
    • The onlay technique demonstrates a favorable success rate in this pediatric population.
    • The procedure contributes to improved hearing outcomes in treated children.
