Tympanic membrane perforation treated with Adelmidrol and Trans-traumatic acid: Two case reports
Abstrak
Tympanic membrane perforation is a very common clinical condition encountered in otological practice; it can result from a large variety of causes such as trauma or infections. Ear buzzing, earache, and hearing loss are the major symptoms of tympanic membrane perforation, which it might also result into middle ear infection (otitis media) and transmissive hearing loss, if not treated in time. Various non-surgical treatments are available to aid tympanic membrane recovery, but to date, there are no efficient topical therapies to improve membrane re-epithelialization. In this article, two cases of persistent tympanic perforation treated with a sterile medical device consisting of Adelmidrol and Trans-traumatic acid are described.
