Intraoperative and Postoperative Advantages of two Absorbable Materials for Supporting Graft in Endoscopic Tympanoplasty: Oxidized Regenerated Cellulose (Surgicel <sup>®</sup> ) Over Gelatin Sponge (Spongostan <sup>®</sup> )
OBJECTIVE: ) for supporting graft material in endoscopic tympanoplasty. METHODS: . Primary outcome measures included intraoperative hemostasis quality, duration of graft placement, postoperative graft success, graft lateralization, and hearing outcomes at 6 and 12 months. RESULTS: < .001), hearing outcomes were similar by 12 months. CONCLUSION: may be a preferable option for enhancing surgical efficiency and optimizing outcomes in endoscopic ear surgery.
