Abstract:
A study of myringoplasty with temporal fascia homograft employing fibronectin was conducted in 14 ears in which the same myringoplasty procedure without fibronectin (1-5 times) had failed to afford closure of tympanic membrane perforation. Closure was obtained in eight ears. These results suggest that fibronectin is effective in myringoplasty using treated temporal fascia homograft.
