A prospective study
Keywords:
tympanolplasty, prp, otitis media, dry earAbstract
An observation study was undertaken at Department of Otorhinolaryngology, AIMSR fromJan 2021 – Aug 2022. The aim of my study the efficiency of use of autologous platelet rich fibrin membrane along with temporalis fascia in closure of tympanic membrane perforation during tympanopasty. All the patients attending ENT OPD at AIMSR within the age group of 11-60 years, irrespective of sex with tubotympanic CSOM either unilateral or bilateral were included in this study. In our study of 50 patients, 42 patients had graft uptake and 8 had failure of graft. Through this study we concluded that. The outcome of tympanoplasty does not depend on age and sex, dry ear of more than 6 month has a better graft.
