Transcanal totally endoscopic ear surgery (TEES) is effective for tympanic membrane repair, offering comparable outcomes to traditional methods. This minimally invasive approach provides faster recovery and avoids skin incisions, making it patient-friendly.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Transcanal totally endoscopic ear surgery (TEES) is gaining international popularity.
  • Surgeons trained in microscope-guided surgery may find TEES adoption challenging due to perceived difficulties.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline the advantages and disadvantages of TEES for tympanic membrane repair.
  • To describe surgical techniques for adopting TEES.

Main Methods:

  • Author's surgical experience.
  • Literature review, including meta-analyses on tympanoplasty outcomes.

Main Results:

  • TEES tympanoplasty demonstrates efficacy in closing tympanic membrane perforations and improving hearing, comparable to microscope-guided surgery.
