RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to provide data on ear tube extrusion and complication rates for patients who have Paparella Type 1 tympanostomy tube (TT) placement. METHODS: Retrospective chart review of patients 6 months to 12 years old who underwent insertion of Paparella Type 1â¯TT by a single surgeon. RESULTS: Of 197 tubes evaluated, 3% were plugged between 1 and 3 months after surgery. Of the 144 tubes evaluated long-term, all tubes extruded within 4 years. There were no tympanic membrane perforations. CONCLUSIONS: This chart review showed expected rate of initial ear tube plugging. The rate of tympanic membrane perforation was lower than expected.
