Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 11
Abstract
The study is to compare the hearing improvement in patients after myringoplasty/ type 1 Tympanoplasty, between two groups i.e., (Group A) graft placed medial to handle of malleus, and (Group B) graft placed lateral to the handle of malleus, based on Pure Tone Audiometry reports postoperatively. This study is done in Govt ENT Hospital/ Osmania Medical College, from August 2014- October 2015. 100 cases with dry central perforation were selected for the candidacy with the help of inclusion and exclusion criteria. Patients were alternatively distributed among two groups. Patient is kept on regular follow up and audiogram is obtained on 4-6 th month postoperatively. Data analysed using graphs, tables and p value. When the two groups were compared, after 4-6 months, the hearing improvement between the two groups was not significant.
