- Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To determine the effectiveness of tympanoplasty with double fascia graft for treatment of tympanic perforation compared to simple fascia grafts. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A randomized, experimental, longitudinal, clinical study carried out from April 2019 to August 2020. Two groups were studied: group I with tympanoplasty with simple fascia and group II with double fascia. The patients were reviewed at 7, 30 and 60 days, assessing the integration of the graft and a control audiometry was performed at 60 days. The comparison between groups was made using X2 or Fisher's exact test for qualitative variables and Student's t or U Mann-Whitney for quantitative ones. p values less than 0.05 were considered significant. RESULTS: Forty patients were included, 20 in each group with a success rate in 10 out of 20 in group I and in 17 out of 20 in group II at 60 days with a statistically significant difference (p = 0.041). In hearing gain, no statistically significant differences were found (p = 0.741). CONCLUSIONS: The double fascia graft was more effective in closing the tympanic perforation compared to the simple fascia graft at 60 days.
