Abstract
Sixty-nine ears with perforation of the tympanic membrane were reviewed. All had undergone myringoplasty by the interlay method. The average period for complete epithelization was 16.1 days after surgery. Neither blunting of the anterior tympanomeatal angle nor lateralization of the tympanic membrane was observed. The success rate was 94.2% for the initial surgery, when "success" is defined as closure of the perforation and complete epithelization (dry ear). The surgical technique and various advantages of the interlay method of myringoplasty are described.
