Gelfoam plug tympanoplasty concomitant with removal of retained ventilation tubes.

OBJECTIVE: To review the charts of patients treated using a gelfoam plug and to determine the efficacy of its use as a grafting material for prevention of perforation when removing retained ventilation tubes. METHOD: Following removal of the retained tube, excision and debridement of the rim of the perforation, the perforation was plugged with gelfoam material. Between February 1998 and July 2002, we used this procedure in 27 patients aged 15 years and younger, on a total of 36 ears. RESULTS: In all 27 cases, complete healing of the perforation was attained. CONCLUSION: A minimal tympanoplastic procedure using gelfoam graft concomitantly with tube removal is effective in prevention of perforation resulting from delayed spontaneous extrusion.

["Crown-cork tympanoplasty"--a method for complete reconstruction of the tympanic membrane].

The crowncorktympanoplasty is a technique for the total reconstruction of the tympanic membrane, recommended in cases of ear malformation, blunting-phenomena and total deficiency of the membrane caused by chronic otitis media. Autologous tragal composite graft is used for the myringoplasty. While the cartilage faces to the middle ear cavity, the overflapping perichondrium is layed on the bony meatal wall in the manner of a crowncork. 10 cases performed in the last two years are reported. In each one an intact tympanic membrane could be reached. In average, the ear bone gap could be reduced for 18.5, 17.5, 16.5 and 13.5 dB in the frequencies of 500, 1000, 2000 and 4000 Hz.

Tympanoplasty surgery and prophylactic antibiotics: surgical results.

This paper reports a multicentre, controlled, blind, prospective, randomized study into the use of prophylactic systemic antibiotics in myringoplasty surgery. A total of 130 individuals were randomly allocated to either an antibiotic or a non-antibiotic group. Each individual was clinically and audiometrically assessed preoperatively, and 8 weeks postoperatively. It was found that systemic prophylactic antibiotics did not influence either the success rate of myringoplasty surgery or the audiometric result.

Homograft ossicles in tympanoplasty.

Homograft ossicles have been utilized in reconstructive middle ear surgery since 1964. In the first few years, simple repositioning of the incus was the method used. Due to the shortcomings of this procedure, a sculptured ossicle, the notched incus, was introduced in 1970 and this has gradually evolved into two standardized and reliable prostheses. In 1972 hearing results were published on the first 122 cases. An expanded study in 1977 reported in detail on 361 ears. The current study reports the results of 326 patients operated upon during the 5 year period of 1976 through 1980 and compares them with the previous studies. The overall hearing results are very similar for both series with little change being noted in the failure rate. However, in the successful categories progress seems to have been made in that a greater percentage of the fair to good results has been shifted to the excellent category. A new concept of ossicular reconstructions is demonstrated with the introduction of the notched incus with high and low profile, to compensate for differences in the stapedial mallear relationship.

Tympanoplasty with calcium phosphate.

A new approach to the problems of chronic middle ear disease using the hydroxyapatite prosthesis is described. Open surgery is preferred and, independent of the eradication, reconstruction is possible. The posterior canal wall is reconstructed with a canal wall prosthesis of porous hydroxyapatite. The middle ear chain defects are reconstructed with a prosthesis of dense hydroxyapatite. In the case of a cavity with a mobile bare footplate a total alloplastic middle ear of hydroxyapatite is used.

[Unusual zones of osteitis detected during salvage tympanoplasty].

Three patients were noted to have unusual zones of osteitis during salvage myringoplasty. The first case involved the whole upper wall of the bony canal and was camouflaged by a weeping mucopolypoid carpet. In the second case there was a wide zone of osteitis of the posterosuperior angle of the canal and another smaller zone in the anteroinferior tympanic region. The osteitis in the third case had invaded the total mastoid cortex producing a vast plaque of superficial osteitis which could be removed without difficulty. Diffuse osteomatous reaction of the wall of the canal had resulted. In all three cases a salvage myringoplasty was possible after elimination of the osteitic lesions, although a glue ear persisted with a punctiform perforation in one patient, suggesting tubal dysfunction.
