Résumé
To determine whether myringoplasty can be an effective tool to control eosinophilic otitis media and improve hearing. Severity scores for patients with eosinophilic otitis media with or without myringoplasty were retrospectively analyzed. Surgical outcomes were assessed and compared to those of patients with control: chronic otitis media with tympanic membrane perforation. The average eosinophilic otitis media severity score for the patients with myringoplasty was significantly lower after than before surgery (P = 0.004), although the score for the group without myringoplasty remained stable during the study period. The success rate for graft uptake was 87.5%, and a statistically significant improvement was observed in the postoperative air conduction hearing level within the speech range (mean ± standard deviation; 41.5 ± 12.3 to 34.6 ± 9.22 dB; P = 0.0026) for patients with eosinophilic otitis media. Myringoplasty contributed to decreased postoperative eosinophilic otitis media severity scores and should be considered to protect the patients from recurrent bacterial infections and pathogenic antigen parasitism in the middle ear.
