“…The wing-like perichondrial flaps were then used to repair the tympanum, whilst the vertical limb of the attached, T-shaped cartilage was placed on the footplate. 16 This technique was later adopted by Goodhill. 17 Neither Brockman nor Goodhill provided audiological results in their original publications.…”

There has been renewed interest in the use of cartilage for middle-ear reconstructions. The aim of the present review is to examine the indications, techniques and surgical outcomes of cartilage tympanoplasties reported in the literature. There have been concerns regarding weakening of cartilage struts, from histological studies involving explants; as a result, cartilage struts for ossiculoplasty have not gained popularity. On the other hand, cartilage tympanoplasty is now an established procedure for tympanic membrane and attic reconstruction. The commonest techniques involve cartilage palisades and composite cartilage-perichondrial island grafts. There are many variations on the shape, size and thickness of the cartilage grafts. The perceived benefit of cartilage tympanoplasty is to prevent retraction pockets at the grafted site, even though many otologists accept that this technique may not deal with the causal factors involved in the retraction process. Concerns that the stiffness and mass of cartilage grafts may adversely affect hearing have not been substantiated in clinical reports thus far.

“…Smyth (personal communication, September 1966) in Ireland has been using homograph septal cartilage with good results. Goodhill and Brockman 11,12 in this country have recently reported a series of tympanoplasties using cartilage to reconstruct the ossicular chain. Tragal cartilage makes an excellent prosthesis because it is readily obtainable in the operative field and is autogenous.…”
