Congenital atresia of the ear have a conductive type of 70 db which is stable. 45 had a lateral canal fenestration. 22 had an hearing improvement greater than 20 db. 45 had a tympanoplasty using a temporalis fascia graft and the ossicles when the malleo incus mass was mobile and had an adequate contact with the stapes. 25 out of these 45 cases had an hearing improvement greater than 20db.
