[Clinical study on repairing subtotal perforation of tympanic membrane with cartilage island technique combined with palisade technique under otoscope].

To investigate the healing rate of subtotal perforation of tympanic membrane repaired by cartilage island technique combined with palisade cartilage technique under otoscope. A retrospective analysis was performed on 189 patients with chronic suppurative otitis media who were admitted to the Department of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery of Hunan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2018 to January 2020. The patients were divided into twogroups, in group onethere were 100 patients treated by senior surgeon, which were divided into two subgroups, Group A （68 cases） were treated with cartilage island technique alone, and Group B （32 cases） were treated with cartilage island technique combined with palisade cartilage technique. In group two there were 89 patients treated by junior surgeons, which were divided into two subgroups. In group C, 50 cases were treated with cartilage island technique alone, and in group D, 39 cases were treated with cartilage island technique combined with palisade cartilage technique. The healing rate of tympanic membrane in group 1 was 96.0% （96/100）, and in group 2 was 87.6%（78/89）.There was statistically significant in group 1 and group 2（χ²=4.504, =0.034）.The healing rate of tympanic membrane was 94.1% （64/68） in group A, 100%（32/32）in group B, 80.0%（40/50） in group C, and 97.4% （38/39） in group D. There was no statistically significant difference between group A and group B （χ²=1.961, =0.161）, there was statistically significant difference between group C and group D （χ²=6.149, =0.013）, and there was statistically significant difference between group A and group C（χ²=5.492, =0.019）There was no statistical difference between group B and group D（χ²=0.832, =0.362）. For beginners of tympanoplasty, the use of cartilage island technique combined with palisade cartilage technique in otoscope can significantly improve the success rate of tympanoplasty with subtotal tympanic perforation.
