Randomized trial demonstrates effective outcomes of otoendoscopic tympanoplasty using cartilage in ear repair, indicating its feasibility.
Key Points
The aim is to evaluate the effects of otoendoscopic bridging tympanoplasty using tragal cartilage-perichondrium composite for repairing large ear perforations.
Used otoendoscopic technique for tympanoplasty.
Employed tragal cartilage-perichondrium composite as a graft material.
Assessed early and intermediate-term outcomes.
Observed significant improvement in hearing after the procedure.
Documented feasibility in repairing large pars tensa perforations.
