Finite Element Analysis and Clinical Research Progress of Tympanic Membrane Perforation and Tympanic Membrane Repair Materials / 医用生物力学

ABSTRACT

Tympanic membrane perforation is one of the common diseases in otolaryngology. The main causes of tympanic membrane perforation are otitis,trauma and etc. With the rapid development of finite element analysis method, this method is applied to clinical evaluation of tympanic membrane perforation and repair materials. By establishing the finite element model of the middle ear, the characteristics of tympanic membrane perforation and tympanic membrane repair materials were analyzed from the biomechanical aspect, with combination of clinical application results. In this review, the finite element analysis and clinic research progress of tympanic menbrane perforation and tympanic membrane repair materials were summarized.
