Morphologic analysis of tympanic membrane grafts

G D Lyons et al. Laryngoscope. 1977 Oct.

Abstract

Many materials are presently used for repair of tympanic membrane defects. Since the microscopic organization of these tissues may play a role with respect to the suitability of replacement of one with the other, a comparative electron microscopic study of temporalis fascia, fresh and preserved amniotic membrane was undertaken. An effort was made to determine the similarities and differences of these tissues and our clinical experience with their use is presented.
