Abstract: (20 Views)
Background and Objective: Otitis media, or inflammation of the middle ear, is a term that includes acute, exudative, and chronic suppurative otitis media. The present study aimed to compare the success rate of tympanoplasty in chronic otitis media with and without otorrhea.
Materials and Methods: This case-control study was conducted at Besat Hospital in Hamadan in 2022-2023. Patients were assigned to two groups (with and without otorrhea). Their demographic information and hearing assessment were recorded before surgery. Therafter, they underwent type 1 tympanoplasty, and their hearing assessment was performed three months after the surgery.
Results: A total of 76 patients (44 with no otorrhea and 32 with otorrhea) were included in the study. The majority of patients with otorrhea were males, while the group without otorrhea included females (P=0.040). Moreover, 77.27% of the group without otorrhea and 77.13% of the patients with otorrhea had complete recovery after tympanoplasty (P=0.008). The hearing improvement rate was higher in patients without discharge; nonetheless, it was not statistically significant (P=0.310).
Conclusion: Tympanoplasty is a preferred method for the treatment of tympanic membrane perforation in patients with chronic otitis media. The presence of secretion in the middle ear does not affect its success rate. Therefore, expediting the selection of this treatment method will be effective in reducing patients' problems and improving their hearing thresholds.
