[The application of U-shaped cartilage-perichondrium tympanoplastyfor subtotal tympanic membrane perforation]
Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the anatomical and functional results of U-shaped cartilage-perichondrium tympanoplasty for subtotal tympanic membrance perforation.Method:A retrospective study was carried out 45 patients(45 ears) with chronic otitis media treated with U-shaped cartilage-perichondrium tympanoplasty.Patients were followed up to assess anatomic and functional results and the data was analyzed statistically.Result:Forty-five cases were followed up successfully,all cases had a tympanic membrane with no irregularities(100%),and the average air-bone gaps of pure tone audiometry of 0.25,0.50,1.00,2.00,4.00 kHz were reduced significantly(P<0.05).Conclusion:U-shaped cartilage-perichondrium tympanoplasty for subtotal tympanic membrane perforation is good with high survival rate and better results of hearing.
