As soon as the surgery requires more, it is referred to as a tympanoplasty, since associated procedures on the ossicles, mastoid and auditory canal can be added if necessary. So there are several types of tympanoplasty to suit every problem. The operation is performed under general anaesthetic by an ENT surgeon, and requires hospitalization for 1 or 2 days.<\/p>\n<p>Find out more about tympanoplasty from Dr. Delagranda, ENT and cervico-facial surgeon<br \/>\nand cervico-facial surgeon in La Roche sur Yon<\/p>\n\t\n<\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1619600626772{padding-top: 6vh !important;padding-bottom: 8vh !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;

It is shaped like a flattened cone, like a Chinese hat, with the tip pointing towards the inside of the skull. The tip, which corresponds to the point of attachment of an ossicle: the malleus, is only 2 mm deeper than the edges. Its average height is 10 mm and its width 8 mm. It is slightly downward and outward-facing in its most anterior part, so its surface area is larger than the cross-section of the external auditory canal, i.e. around 60 mm2. It has 2 distinct zones separated by integrated tympanomalleolar ligaments. The S-shaped external auditory canal partially protects it from external mechanical stress:<br \/>\nThe pars tensa: located below the ligaments, this accounts for the greater part of the eardrum (85%). This portion is the most rigid. From outside to inside, it is made up of three layers: an epithelial layer, which is the continuity of the skin of the auditory canal and outer ear; a fibrous layer, the lamina propria, containing collagen fibers; and a mucous layer, which is the innermost layer. The eardrum&#8217;s plasticity and elasticity enable it to vibrate in response to sound.<br \/>\nThe pars flaccida or schrapnell membrane, above the ligaments, is smaller (15%) but lacks the intermediate fibrous layer that makes it more fragile.<\/p>\n<p>The middle ear or tympanic cavity is an air-filled cavity between a cylinder and a cube, bounded by the eardrum on the outside and bone on the other sides. It contains the three ossicles, which are free to move because of the air surrounding them: the hammer (7-9mm), the anvil (5-7mm) and the stirrup (2-4mm). Three nerves pass through the middle ear: the \u02ddchorda tympani\u02dd of the tympanic membrane, which is involved in the sense of taste, the facial nerve, which controls motor activity in the hemi-face, and the Jacobson&#8217;s nerve, which innervates the mucous membrane of the middle ear. The middle ear communicates with the rhinopharynx via the eustachian tube, with the mastoid via the aditus ad antrum, and with the inner ear via the oval and round windows.<\/p>\n<p>The middle ear and eardrum can be the site of multiple pathologies within different nosological frameworks: congenital malformation (e.g. ossicular agenesis or aplasia), chronic infections (e.g. chronic otitis destroying ossicles or stiffening the eardrum), tympanic retraction, flaccid eardrum, presence of destructive skin in the middle ear (cholesteatoma).<\/p>\n\t\n<\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1621515229084{background: #ffffff url(https:\/\/www.dr-delagranda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/indications-tympanoplastie.jpg?id=5675698) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}&#8221; el_id=&#8221;publics&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;120px&#8221;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;7\/12&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1607095018746{padding-right: 10% !important;padding-left: 10% !important;background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.95) !important;*background-color: rgb(255,255,255) !important;}&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;60px&#8221;]<div class=\"norebro-heading-sc heading text-left\"\n\tid=\"norebro-custom-69f4d565dbe17\" \n\t \n\t>\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t<h2 class=\"title\">\n\t\tWho is concerned by tympanoplasty?\t<\/h2>\n\n\t\n\t\t\n<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;]<div class=\"norebro-text-sc justify\" \n\tid=\"norebro-custom-69f4d565dbee8\" \n\t \n\t>\n\n\t<ul>\n<li>Adults or children with hearing loss related to ossicular and\/or eardrum pathology.<\/li>\n<li>Adults or children with progressive tympanic retraction or tympanic retraction that cannot be controlled in consultation.<\/li>\n<li>Adults or children with cholesteatoma (possible permanent foul-smelling discharge from the ear, reduced hearing).<\/li>\n<li>Adults with repeated otitis externa due to water blockage in the auditory canal by exostoses (bone growth reacting to cold water): Bathers, regular surfers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Bear in mind that your ENT surgeon may suggest a tympanoplasty when you yourself have few or no clinical signs.

A tiny skin incision of 1 to 1.5 cm is made, either in front of the ear, extending above and behind, or a little further back (3-4 cm), depending on the technique chosen by the surgeon. The procedure varies according to the cause (removal of the cholesteatoma, mastoid milling, reconstruction of the bony framework, tympanic reconstruction and stiffening, replacement of ossicles with a titanium prosthesis, or recutting of bridged ossicles). A healing dressing is placed in the ear canal for 10 to 15 days.<\/p>\n\t\n<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;60px&#8221;]<div class=\"norebro-heading-sc heading text-left\"\n\tid=\"norebro-custom-69f4d565dc1d4\" \n\t \n\t>\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t<h3 class=\"title\">\n\t\tPost-surgery recovery period\t<\/h3>\n\n\t\n\t\t\n<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;]<div class=\"norebro-text-sc justify\" \n\tid=\"norebro-custom-69f4d565dc2a5\" \n\t \n\t>\n\n\t<p>If you are hospitalized as an outpatient, you can go home the same day, or the following day.<br \/>\nAfter hospitalization, you must remain at home for 10 days, resting and not putting any liquid in your ear other than the prescribed drops.<br \/>\nThe surgeon will give you 10 to 15 days off work.<br \/>\nSport is not recommended for the first 15 days, and should be resumed gradually.<br \/>\nSwimming and diving are not recommended until your surgeon has advised you.<br \/>\nFlying is not recommended for 2 months.<br \/>\nPain is slight, sometimes increased when chewing.
