Abstract:
Anvil bones bioceramic prostheses were used in tympanoplasty performed in 60 patients with chronic otitis media purulenta (COMP). Complete and partial variants of the prostheses were tried. Follow-up results available for 60 patients demonstrate that the above tympanoplasty improved hearing in 41 out of 60 patients, made possible complete cavity epidermization, arrested inflammation, secured safety of the tympanic transplant in 51 patients. Bioceramic prostheses of the anvil bones provide stable hearing improvement even in COMP cases with severe impairment of the anvil bones.
