Abstract
Objectives: This study compared endoscopic and microscopic tympanoplasty regarding surgical duration and clinical outcomes for chronic suppurative otitis media.
Methods: Retrospective study included patients who underwent either endoscopic or microscopic tympanoplasty at King Abdullah Medical City between January 2020 and May 2022. It compared the groups' surgical duration, residual perforation incidence, post-operative pain and audiological outcomes.
Results: The study included 58 patients, 29 of whom underwent endoscopic and 29 underwent microscopic tympanoplasty. Endoscopic tympanoplasty had a significantly shorter average surgical duration (75.46 ± 21.04 minutes) than microscopic (126.66 ± 34.27 minutes). Non-significant differences were detected between groups regarding residual perforation, post-operative pain or hearing improvements.
Conclusion: Both procedures resulted in non-significant differences regarding hearing and surgical complications. However, endoscopic tympanoplasty had a significantly shorter surgical duration, making it a preferable option due to reducing time required. Further randomized studies should be conducted to answer which approach is superior.
