RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effect of adding platelet rich plasma (PRP) or Hyaluronic acid (HA) to fat graft myringoplasty (FGM) for medium sized central tympanic membrane (TM) perforations. METHODS: This is a retrospective study conducted on 69 patients with medium sized central TM perforations. In 21 patients, PRP was used with the FGM; and in 23 patients, HA was used with the FGM; while in 25 patients, pure FGM was performed without adding an enhancing material. RESULTS: Successful TM perforation repair was achieved in 18 ears (85.7) with using PRP with FGM and in 20 ears (87%) with using HA with FGM and in 15 ears (60%) with pure FGM. CONCLUSION: FGM with adding PRP or HA is more successful in closure of TM perforation than pure FGM in case of medium sized central TM perforation.
