What Is Ear Microsurgery?

This specialized ENT surgery uses a microscope for precise treatment of middle ear conditions, including tympanoplasty, myringoplasty, myringotomy, or mastoidectomy. It addresses chronic infections, hearing loss, tinnitus, or congenital abnormalities. Performed under local or general anesthesia, these procedures repair eardrums, remove earwax, or correct ossicular issues, ensuring minimal invasiveness and effective restoration of ear function.

How Is the Procedure Performed?

The process begins with an ear assessment, often using otoscopy or imaging. Under local or general anesthesia, a microscope guides procedures like tympanoplasty or myringotomy through the ear canal. Lasting 30–120 minutes, these surgeries precisely address infections, perforations, or structural issues, ensuring minimal tissue damage and optimal outcomes for ear health and function.

What to Expect During Recovery

Post-surgery, mild discomfort or temporary hearing changes may resolve within 1–7 days. A mastoid dressing is worn for about a week, with possible hospitalization for 2–5 days. Follow aftercare, such as ear drops or avoiding water exposure. Most resume light activities within days, with full recovery in 2–6 weeks. Follow-ups ensure sustained ear health.
