Abstract
To compare the outcome of type I tympanoplasty with cortical mastoidectomy in chronic otitis media active mucosal disease (wet ear) versus chronic otitis media inactive mucosal disease (dry ear). An observational analytic study was conducted and data collection was done from August 2014 to August 2016. All patients of chronic otitis media with mucosal disease were divided into two groups, one with active disease (group A) and another with inactive disease (group B). The outcome was studied in the form of graft take up rate. Total 103 patients were studied, group A (wet ear) had 67 and group B (dry ear) had 36 patients. Graft take up rate was 94% in wet ear and 100% in dry ear and p value was 0.2. There was no statistically significant difference found between the two groups.
