Abstract

An Observational Study was undertaken at Department of Otorhinolaryngology,. The aim of this study was to observe the outcome of cartilage tympanoplasty for tubotympanic type of CSOM. All the patients attending ENT OPD at SIMS 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 80 patients, 40 patients had graft uptake after disease clearance and 8 had failure of graft uptake without chronic otorrhoea and 2 had failure with chronic otorrhoea. Through this study we concluded that cartilage tympanoplasty for tubotympanic type of CSOM is an excellent technique for complete removal of disease especially frominaccessible areas of middle ear cleft.
