Surgical results of tympanoplasty with hokudai-shaped partial and total ossicular replacement prostheses.

The surgical results of tympanoplasty using a ceramic partial ossicular replacement prosthesis (PORP) or a ceramic total ossicular replacement prosthesis (TORP) were analyzed. The present study included 25 ears in 22 patients who underwent tympanoplasty between December 1986 and September 1994 and were followed up for more than 6 months postoperatively. Because the ceramic prosthesis was extruded from 2 of the 25 ears, the surgical results in the other 23 ears were analyzed, Surgical results were assessed according to a criterion that permits comparison with data from around the world. The criterion considers a postoperative airbone gap within 20 dB as a success. According to this criterion, the success rate was 90.9% for PORP, 50.0% for TORP, and 69.6% in total. These results are comparable with those found at other centers.
