    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Surgical Innovation

    Background:

    • Tympanic membrane perforations are common, impacting hearing and quality of life.
    • Myringoplasty offers a surgical solution for eardrum repair.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the outcomes of myringoplasty using the fascial underlay technique.
    • To assess graft success rates and identify factors influencing outcomes.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 172 myringoplasty cases.
    • Utilized the fascial underlay technique with swing-door plasty in 78% of cases.
    • Follow-up averaged 1.5 years.

    Main Results:

    • An overall graft take success rate of 87% was achieved.
    • Healed perforations were reported in 89% of cases after reoperation consideration.
