Abstract

Objective: Tympanostomy tube removal is a common procedure, the most common complication of which is persistent perforation. Multiple surgical techniques exist. This study seeks to determine whether the technique used affects success rate or surgical time.

Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study in a tertiary-care children's hospital. Tube removal procedure codes were used to extract charts from 2008 to 2023. Data were collected on surgical technique, success, operative time, indications, and patient factors. Primary outcome measure was surgical success, defined as no residual perforation.

Results: A total of 1562 patient ears were analyzed. Success rate was 95.5% for trichloroacetic acid (TCA) myringoplasty with patch, 86.5% for cold myringoplasty with patch placement (CMwP), 74.7% for cold myringoplasty without patch placement (CMsP), and 73.8% for tube removal alone (TR). TR as compared with CMsP did not show a difference in closure rates (p = 1.0000). CMwP was more likely to be successful than TR (p = 0.0162) or CMsP (p = 0.0117). TCA was more likely to be successful than CMwP (p = 0.0197). Median operative time was 4 min for TR, CMsP, and CMwP and 5 min for TCA. This difference in operative time between the groups was statistically significant (p < 0.001).

Conclusion: TCA myringoplasty with patch shows greater surgical success rate than cold myringoplasty with patch, cold myringoplasty without patch, or tube removal alone, but it has a longer operative time. Cold myringoplasty with patch has greater surgical success than cold myringoplasty without patch or tube removal alone.

Level of evidence: 3 Laryngoscope, 2025.

期刊介绍: The Laryngoscope has been the leading source of information on advances in the diagnosis and treatment of head and neck disorders since 1890. The Laryngoscope is the first choice among otolaryngologists for publication of their important findings and techniques. Each monthly issue of The Laryngoscope features peer-reviewed medical, clinical, and research contributions in general otolaryngology, allergy/rhinology, otology/neurotology, laryngology/bronchoesophagology, head and neck surgery, sleep medicine, pediatric otolaryngology, facial plastics and reconstructive surgery, oncology, and communicative disorders. Contributions include papers and posters presented at the Annual and Section Meetings of the Triological Society, as well as independent papers, "How I Do It", "Triological Best Practice" articles, and contemporary reviews. Theses authored by the Triological Society’s new Fellows as well as papers presented at meetings of the American Laryngological Association are published in The Laryngoscope. • Broncho-esophagology • Communicative disorders • Head and neck surgery • Plastic and reconstructive facial surgery • Oncology • Speech and hearing defects
