Evaluation of Graft Take Up in Myringoplasty- Temporalis Fascia VsTragal Perichondrium
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 12
Abstract
Abstract: The aim of this study was to compare and evaluate the graft success rate in myringoplasty between the temporalis fascia and tragal perichondrium.This is a prospective study involved 80 patients with chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM), tubotympanic type divided into two groups. 40 patients underwent myringoplasty with temporalis fascia graft and 40 patients underwent myringoplasty with tragalperichondrial graft. All the 80 patients were followed for 3 months after surgery to observe the graft take up. Post operatively after 3 months, with temporalis fascia the graft take up rate was 95% and with tragal perichondrium it was 90%.In our study even though the graft take up rate was better with temporalis fascia (95%) than tragal perichondrium (90%) in myringoplasty ,it was not significant. So both temporalis fascia and tragal perichondrium were ideal graft materials for myringoplasty. Keywords:Temporalis fascia, Tragal perichondrium, Myringoplasty.
