Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 8
Abstract
Background- Hearing loss is a global problem with 275 million of the world’s population suffering from moderate or greater degrees of decreased hearing acuity according to WHO survey in 2001. The disease is more commonly seen in developing countries. Methods- This clinical study was conducted in the department of ENT, Geetanjali Medical College and Hospital, Udaipur, Rajasthan from January 2016 to June 2017, after obtaining approval from ethics committee of GMCH, Udaipur & obtaining informed consent from inpatients selected for the study. Results- In the composite tragal graft uptake rate was 97.50% and in temporalis fascia group there was 90% uptake rate. The mean composite tragal group AB gap measured pre operatively was 36.38 ± 6.10 which improved to 18.13±5.84 db post operatively. This was statistically highly significant improvement in AB gap levels. Similarly the temporalis fascia graft also improved from 28.73± 5.82 to 15.23± 8.24 db Post operatively. Conclusion- Cartilage tympanoplasty provides excellent audiologic outcome comparable to temporalis fascia graft.
