Journal Title: IJSR-International Journal Of Scientific Research - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 11
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Perforation of tympanic membrane constitutes a major portion of patients attending ENT OPD for which they are advised surgical procedures. Most of the cases with small perforations can be managed by doing OPD procedure of cautery patching and hence surgical procedure can be avoided. METHODS: The study was conducted in the tertiary hospital from August 2018 to July 2019. The patients were selected on the basis of the inclusion criteria after doing clinical examination, and audiometry. All the patients underwent cautery patching with tincture ferri perchloride and patch placed. The patients were followed up weekly till the perforation was completely closed or uptill 3 months. RESULTS: Total of 65 patients was included in the study. Most common etiology of perforation was inflammatory involving anteroinferior quadrant as most common etiology with success achieved in 56 patients. CONCLUSION: patients with small central dry perforation of tympanic membrane, cautery patching using tincture ferri per chloride and paper patching gives good results comparing to the surgical procedure, while ablating the morbidity and psychological trauma of the surgery.
