PRP Plus Temporalis Fascia Enhances Tympanoplasty Success Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media

4 Jul 2025 • A new study highlighted that incorporating autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) with temporalis fascia in Type 1 tympanoplasty significantly improved outcomes in patients with inactive mucosal chronic suppurative otitis media.

Patients treated with fascia plus PRP consistently showed higher graft uptake rates and better hearing enhancement (Air-Bone Gap closure) at 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively compared to those with fascia alone.

No major complications occurred in either group. PRP, rich in growth factors like PDGF and VEGF, offers a biologically active, safe, and cost-effective enhancement to traditional tympanic membrane reconstruction.
