Tympanoplasty & Myringoplasty — Eardrum Repair
Kaan ka Parda Theek Karna · Eardrum Surgery Patna · CSOM SurgeryTympanoplasty is a surgical procedure to repair a perforated eardrum (ruptured ear drum) and reconstruct the middle ear. Myringoplasty is a simpler version — it repairs only the eardrum without touching the middle ear bones. These surgeries are the definitive treatment for Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media (CSOM) — the persistent ear discharge condition extremely common in Patna. The goals are to stop ear discharge, prevent recurrent infections, and restore hearing. At D.N.A. Advanced ENT Clinic, Raja Bazar, Patna, Dr. Abhinandan performs this surgery entirely through the ear canal using a surgical microscope — with no external cuts or visible scarring. A small graft (usually from the patient's own tissue — temporalis fascia) is used to patch the hole in the eardrum. Most patients experience significant improvement in hearing and complete resolution of ear discharge post-surgery.
