of percentage change of the results in terms of the
documented hearing results (not based on any particular
classification) in ear surgeries in chronic suppurative otitis
media (CSOM) cases. Materials and methods: Our series
is a prospective cohort observational study in 230 cases
of CSOM from 2009-2016 wherein we have evaluated the
hearing improvement with a parameter of percentage (%)
change of hearing improvement between pre-operative and
post-operative period in various types of ear surgeries. A
statistically significant difference was seen in 4 out of the 14
surgical groups namely in mastoidotympanoplasty, modified
radical mastoidectomy (MRM), MRM with tympanoplasty
and in tympanoplasty. The rest of the 10 surgical groups had
less than 10 cases and therefore the p significance could not
be determined however these groups still showed hearing
improvement. The superiority of the surgical techniques like
mastoidotympanoplasty, MRM, MRM with tympanoplasty
and in tympanoplasty as demonstrated in our study aims to
find an ideal surgical procedure in CSOMwhich gives the best
chance to improve or preserve the hearing with complete
eradication of the disease.
