Tympanoplasty Surgery in Jalandhar at Kataria Eye & ENT Hospital
What is Tympanoplasty?
Tympanoplasty is an ear operation to close a hole (perforation) in the eardrum and, when needed, repair the tiny hearing bones (ossicles) of the middle ear. The surgeon uses a small graft, usually taken from the patient’s own tissue near the ear, to rebuild the eardrum. The aim is a dry, safe ear and better hearing.
Who Needs Tympanoplasty?
- A hole in the eardrum that has not healed on its own
- Repeated ear discharge or chronic middle ear infection (chronic otitis media)
- Hearing loss caused by eardrum or middle-ear damage
- Eardrum damage after injury, a loud blast or a past infection
How is Tympanoplasty Performed?
Before surgery, our ENT team examines the ear under a microscope or endoscope and checks hearing with audiometry (PTA). The operation is done under local or general anaesthesia using an operating microscope or endoscope, through the ear canal or a small cut behind the ear. It usually takes 1–2 hours, and most patients go home the same day or the next day. For more complex ear problems, see our micro surgery of ear services.
Recovery After Tympanoplasty
Mild discomfort and a blocked feeling in the ear are normal for a few days. Keep the ear dry, avoid blowing your nose forcefully, and avoid flying or heavy lifting until your doctor allows it. The graft takes a few weeks to heal, and hearing usually improves gradually over 6–8 weeks. Follow-up visits and a hearing test confirm the result.

Tympanoplasty – Frequently Asked Questions
Is tympanoplasty a painful surgery?
No. Tympanoplasty is done under local or general anaesthesia, so you will not feel pain during the operation. Mild ear pain or discomfort for a few days afterwards is usually controlled with simple painkillers.
How long does it take to recover from tympanoplasty?
Most patients return to normal daily work within 1–2 weeks. The new eardrum takes a few weeks to heal, and hearing usually improves gradually over 6–8 weeks. The ear must be kept dry until your doctor advises otherwise.
Will my hearing improve after tympanoplasty?
In most patients hearing improves once the eardrum heals, especially when the hearing loss was caused by the perforation. The exact improvement depends on the condition of the middle ear bones, which your ENT surgeon will explain after a hearing test.
What is the success rate of tympanoplasty?
Tympanoplasty has a high success rate for closing eardrum perforations when done by an experienced ENT surgeon and when post-operative care is followed carefully. Your surgeon will discuss your individual chances after examining the ear.
