[Long-term anatomic results of tympanic homografts. Apropos of 170 cases].
Long-term anatomic results of 170 tympanic homografts performed in the Necker-Enfants-Malades hospital, France between 1977 and 1983 showed high frequency of complications: early perforation (17.7%); late perforation (14%); myringitis (8.5%); recurrence of retraction (7.31%); lateralization (9.4%). These complications are of much higher frequency than after tympanoplasty with autograft, and indications for tympano-ossicular homografts are now limited to total tympanic destruction with absence of handle of malleus.
