Abstract
Summary
Untreated TM perforations may lead hearing loss and middle ear infection even if they are of small size. Further, the patients have to observe water restrictions. The aim of myringoplasty is to close these perforations and thus improve hearing quality and reduce the susceptibility to middle ear infections.
To close a TM perforation, myringoplasty with post auricular incision has been routinely performed all over the world for the past four decades and surgeons have chosen a preferred method among underlay, overlay, and inlay (sandwich) techniques. The repair of the TM has been attempted with large variety of synthetic, homologous and autogenous tissue; however temporalis fascia, areolar fat and perichondrium are used most commonly today. In our study we include 30 patients and all patients were subjected to which done under general anathesia post auricular myringoplasty .The study was carried out in ENT Department of BeniSuef University Hospitals.
In our study We found the success rate is 73.33%and a failure rate of 26.66% in patients.
In conclusion, Myringoplasty in eldery is safe and no big difference between results of other studies on younger people.
