What is Tympanoplasty?
Tympanoplasty is a surgical procedure to repair a perforated eardrum (tympanic membrane) and restore middle ear function. Whether caused by chronic ear infections, trauma, or long-term Eustachian tube issues, a hole in the eardrum can affect hearing and increase infection risk. Tympanoplasty is ideal for patients with chronic ear problems, conductive hearing loss, and recurring infections that don’t heal naturally.
Symptoms or Conditions Treated
Tympanoplasty treats conditions such as:
- Chronic ear infections
- Hearing loss due to eardrum perforation
- Fluid leakage from the ear
- Recurrent earaches
- Persistent buzzing or ringing in the ear (tinnitus)
- Frequent ear infections in children

Why This Surgery?
Tympanoplasty offers critical benefits, including:
- Restoration of hearing
- Prevention of recurrent ear infections
- Closure of the eardrum perforation
- Improved quality of life
Surgery becomes necessary when a natural healing process fails, or repeated infections impair hearing and day-to-day life.
What to Expect Before Surgery
Before scheduling your eardrum repair surgery:
- Detailed ENT examination including otoscopy and audiometry
- Imaging tests like a CT scan (if needed)
- Pre-surgery health evaluation and hearing tests
Our team provides comprehensive guidance to prepare you physically and mentally for the procedure.
Tympanoplasty Surgery Procedure Explained
Performed under local or general anesthesia:
- The surgeon accesses the middle ear via the ear canal or behind the ear.
- Grafts, typically from your own tissue, are used for eardrum patch surgery.
- Middle ear structures may also be repaired if damaged (middle ear repair).
- The surgery typically lasts between 1 to 2 hours.
- Most patients can go home the same day, though sometimes a brief hospital stay is recommended.
We offer different Tympanoplasty types (Type I, II, III, etc.) based on the extent of repair needed.
Risks and Side Effects
Tympanoplasty is safe but potential complications can include:
- Minor bleeding or infection
- Dizziness temporarily post-surgery
- Graft failure (rare)
- Hearing may take time to fully improve
At Curis Life, Andheri West, our ENT surgeons use precision techniques to minimize risks and ensure the highest safety standards.
