OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical curative effect of acellular dermal matrix contrast with temporalis fascia in type Ⅰ tympanoplasty. METHODS A retrospective analysis of 60 inflammatory chronic suppurative otitis media patients from January 2014 to January 2015 in Genenral Hospital of PLA Guangzhou Military Area were conducted.All cases were perpormed the ear incision under local anesthesia, including 32 cases(32 ears) with acellular dermal matrix, 28 cases(28 ears) with temporal fascia. The operation time, postoperative pain, the healing of tympanic membrane and the postoperative recovery were compared between the two groups. RESULTS There was significant difference in the operation time and postoperative pain between the two groups(P0.05). CONCLUSION The effect of acellular dermal matrix for repairing tympanic membrane is similar to the temporalis fascia. The use of acellular dermal matrix has the advantage of shorter operation time, less postoperative pain, and can avoid regional two incisions, it is worthy of clinical application.
