Abstract
Objective: The objectives of this study were to record graft uptake, hearing status and any complication(s) after total annular excision (TAE) tympanoplasty and to compare them with previously operated underlay tympanoplasty patients.
Design: Prospective study.
Methods: Patients with chronic otitis media mucosal type aged between 15-45 years attending our outpatient department were assessed and eligible patients who gave consent for the study were included.
Result: Patients of chronic otitis media mucosal type who underwent TAE tympanoplasty had 80% graft uptake. Post TAE tympanoplasty patients had good hearing assessed by tuning fork test and pure tone audiometry. Maximum improvement in hearing was seen at 500Hz frequency by pure tone audiometry in TAE tympanoplasty group. Histopathological examination of remnant tympanic membrane showed mucosalization.
Conclusion: TAE tympanoplasty can effectively prevent development of granular myringitis.

期刊介绍：
Published since 1973, Geology features rapid publication of about 23 refereed short (four-page) papers each month. Articles cover all earth-science disciplines and include new investigations and provocative topics. Professional geologists and university-level students in the earth sciences use this widely read journal to keep up with scientific research trends. The online forum section facilitates author-reader dialog. Includes color and occasional large-format illustrations on oversized loose inserts.
