Abstract:
Objective:Analysis of perforation rate and hearing improvement rate of patients with chronic suppurative otitis media after operation, to observe the effect of tympanoplasty with or without mastoidectomy.Method:Retrospective analysis the clinical data of EENT Hospital of Fudan University from January 2011 to December 2016, 167 cases (ears) by tympanoplasty. According to the surgical approach were divided into simple tympanoplasty in 108 cases (group A), tympanoplasty with mastoidectomy in 59 cases(group B)(CWU in 23 cases, IBM in 11 cases, CWD in 25 cases). Endoscopy and pure tone audiometry after 3 to 6 months, using SPSS19.0 software to compare the difference of tympanic membrane perforation rate and hearing improvement rate. Result:The tympanic membrane perforation rate of group A and group B were 8.33%(9/108) and 5.08%(3/59),there was no significant difference(χ²= 0.604, P> 0.05). The hearing improvement rate of group A and group B were 83.33%(90/108) and 77.97%(46/59), there was no significant difference (χ²= 0.727, P> 0.05).Conclusion:For chronic suppurative otitis media with lesions confined to the mastoid and tympanic sinus, the removal of mastoid lesions in the treatment of tympanic membrane healing and improvement of hearing can not achieve better results than simple tympanoplasty.
