Myringotomy And Grommet Insertion

A myringotomy is a surgical procedure in which a small incision is made in the eardrum. A grommet is then inserted into the incision. The purpose of the procedure is to relieve pressure in the middle ear and to allow air to enter the middle ear. It is often performed in children who have persistent middle ear infections. The procedure is typically performed under general anaesthesia. A small incision is made in the eardrum, and a grommet is inserted into the incision. The grommet helps to keep the incision open and allows air to enter the middle ear. The grommet typically falls out on its own after a few months. Book an appointment to have the best treatment.

Tympanoplasty (Type 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 )

A tympanoplasty is a type of surgery that is performed to repair a hole in the eardrum or to reconstruct the middle ear bones. The surgery is performed by an otolaryngologist, also known as an ENT (ear, nose, and throat) surgeon.

There are four types of tympanoplasty:

Type 1: This type of surgery is performed to repair a small hole in the eardrum.

Type 2: This type of surgery is performed to repair a large hole in the eardrum.

Type 3: This type of surgery is performed to reconstruct the middle ear bones.

Type 4: This type of surgery is performed to repair both a small hole in the eardrum and to reconstruct the middle ear bones.

Cartilage Tympanoplasty

Tympanoplasty is a surgical procedure to repair a hole in the eardrum (tympanic membrane). The surgery is performed under general anaesthesia and takes about 1-2 hours.

The surgeon makes a small incision in the skin behind the ear and removes the damaged portion of the eardrum. A graft (a piece of tissue) is then placed over the hole and secured in place with stitches. The graft may be taken from another part of the body (such as the forearm) or from a donor. Visit our ent care hospital in Bangalore for the best treatment

Canaloplasty

A canaloplasty is a type of surgery used to treat a condition known as narrow canal syndrome. This condition is caused by the narrowing of the ear canal, which can lead to hearing loss and other problems.

The surgery itself involves making a small incision in the ear canal and then widening it with a small implant. This helps to improve the flow of air and sound into the ear and can also help to reduce the risk of infection. 

Mastoidectomy Tympanoplasty

Mastoidectomy tympanoplasty is a type of surgery used to treat problems with the middle ear. The mastoid is a bone behind the ear that contains the middle ear. The tympanum is the eardrum. The surgery is done by making an incision in the mastoid bone and removing the diseased tissue. The tympanum is then repaired. Mastoidectomy tympanoplasty is used to treat chronic ear infections, cholesteatoma, and perforated eardrums. It is also used to improve hearing.

Combined approach Tympanoplasty

A combined approach tympanoplasty is a type of surgery that is used to repair the eardrum (tympanic membrane). The surgery is performed by making an incision in the ear canal and then lifting the skin flap to expose the eardrum. A small incision is made in the eardrum, and the tissue is removed. A graft is then placed over the hole in the eardrum, and the skin flap is sutured back in place.

The surgery is performed under general anesthesia and takes about 1-2 hours. Recovery time is usually about 2 weeks. There may be some mild pain and discomfort during the recovery period. The vast majority of patients who undergo this surgery have a successful outcome and experience a significant improvement in their hearing.

Intact canal Mastoidectomy Tympanoplasty

Intact canal mastoidectomy tympanoplasty is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to treat chronic ear infections and hearing loss. The procedure is performed through a small incision in the mastoid bone, which is the bone behind the ear. This allows the surgeon to access the middle ear without having to make a large incision. The surgeon will then remove the diseased tissue and any debris from the middle ear. Once the middle ear is clean, the surgeon will place a small tube in the eardrum to allow for drainage and ventilation. In some cases, the surgeon may also need to place a hearing aid. The entire procedure usually takes less than two hours to complete.

Stepidotomy

Stepidotomy is a surgical procedure to correct a deformity of the ear. The deformity may be due to a congenital disability, trauma, or disease. The surgery is performed under general anaesthesia and usually takes about two hours. The surgeon makes an incision in the skin of the ear and removes the deformity. The incision is then closed with stitches. The surgery may be performed as an outpatient procedure or with a one-night stay in the hospital.

Surgeries for Glomus Jugulare

A glomus jugulare tumour is a noncancerous growth that arises from the glomus body, a small group of cells found in the head and neck. These tumors are rare, accounting for less than 1 percent of all head and neck tumours.

Most glomus jugulare tumours are slow-growing and cause no symptoms. When symptoms do occur, they may include hearing loss, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), and facial paralysis. The tumours can also cause problems with balance and swallowing.

Glomus jugulare tumours are usually diagnosed with imaging tests, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT). A biopsy may also be done to confirm the diagnosis 

Surgeries for Tympanosclerosis

Tympanosclerosis is a condition that results in the thickening and hardening of the tympanic membrane, the thin layer of tissue that separates the middle ear from the outer ear. This can cause various problems, including hearing loss, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), and balance problems.

There are two main types of surgery for tympanosclerosis: myringoplasty and tympanoplasty. Myringoplasty is a surgery to repair a hole in the tympanic membrane. Tympanoplasty is a surgery to repair both the tympanic membrane and the ossicles, the three small bones in the middle ear.

Facial Nerve Decompression

The facial nerve is responsible for the movement of the facial muscles. When the facial nerve is compressed, it can cause facial paralysis. Facial nerve decompression is a surgical procedure to relieve pressure on the facial nerve. This can be done by removing part of the bone that is pressing on the nerve or by cutting the nerve to release the pressure. This surgery is often done to improve the function of the facial muscles and to improve the appearance of the face.
