Cyanoacrylate in myringoplasty - an office based procedure.

ABSTRACT

Graft failure continues to be a problem for surgery of the perforated eardrum. We present our experience of six cases managed using commercially available superglue (cyanoacrylate) for myringoplasty. This method is simple, office based, less time consuming and cost effective. An insulin syringe was used to deliver the glue after a temporalis fascia graft was tucked under the edges of the perforation.
