The possibilities of creating three-layer grafts are highlighted, taking into account the achievements of scientific and technological progress. It has been shown that classical methods of surgical correction of defects of the eardrum, including the use of autografts (temporal fascia, cartilage), do not always allow to achieve a sustainable anatomical and functional result, especially in large and persistent perforations. There is a tendency of active development of the direction of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering, allowing to create biocompatible grafts with specified properties, to introduce mesenchymal stem cells, as well as to use growth factors to stimulate reparative processes. The review analyzes data on the effectiveness of classical and innovative tympanoplasty methods, as well as the prospects for using 3D bioprinting, collagen matrices, and cellular technologies to restore the integrity of the eardrum.
