Novel Use of Platelet Rich Fibrin Membrane in Transcanal Myringoplasty: A Prospective Study

Abstract: Being rich in growth factors platelet rich fibrin (PRF) has been used for decades for its healing properties in cosmetic surgeries but its use in transcanal myringoplasty is a novel approach that remains unexplored. In todays era of minimally invasive surgery not only does it provide as a great alternative to conventional myringoplasty but also outshines it. It reduces post operative pain, hospital stay and unlike the conventional technique that uses termporalis fascia as a graft material, PRF myringoplasty if… Show more

“…Hearing loss and perforation dimensions have a strong quantitative relationship. The myringoplasty treatment helps the patient hear better [7][8] . In my studies, I have demonstrated that big tympanic membrane perforations following successful myringoplasty lead to greater improvements in hearing [9][10] .…”

“…Cholesteatoma, persistent otorrhea, and eventual hearing loss can develop if surgical treatment is delayed or avoided. To wit: (Shukla A et al,2020) Myringoplasty is the recommended surgical procedure for repairing a ruptured tympanic membrane. Several different grafting materials and myringoplasty procedures have been tried to heal the perforated tympanic membrane.…”
