Abstract EN
The aim of our study is to demonstrate the surgical management of myringosclerosis over a perforated whole tympanic membrane using simple underlay myringoplasty.
Simple underlay myringoplasty with fibrin glue was performed in 11 ears with myringosclerosis over the entire tympanic membrane.
The patients were one male and ten females and their mean age was 61.8 years (range, 40–73 yr).
Surgical success was defined as an intact tympanic membrane 12 months after surgery.
Closure of the perforation was successful in 10 (91%) of the 11 patients.
Failure of the graft occurred in one patient who then underwent a revision procedure using her stored fascia in the outpatient clinic with a successful outcome.
The overall success rate was 100%.
Although this study included a small number of cases, removal of myringosclerosis at the edge of a perforation is a beneficial technique for simple underlay myringoplasty in terms of the success rate and postoperative hearing threshold, especially when myringosclerosis extends over the entire tympanic membrane.
