Granuloma on tympanic membrane is a rare complication after ventilation drainage of tympanic cavity. The paper presents a case of a child for chronic otitis media with effusion with ventilation drainage of the right tympanic cavity, retained for 24 months, and granuloma on tympanic membrane growing all over the ventilation drain, imitating acute inflammation, causing conductive hearing loss. The patient was treated with the vent tube removal together with granulation inflammatory. Spontaneous healing of the perforation of the tympanic membrane and improve hearing were obtained after a four-month follow-up.

Objective: The butterfly cartilage inlay technique was originally developed for repairing small tympanic membrane (TM) perforations but is now increasingly used for repairing large TM perforations. Although studies have evaluated the effectiveness of butterfly tympanoplasty for repairing medium-to-large-sized TM perforations, no study has compared its effectiveness with that of the conventional underlay cartilage technique. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of butterfly tympanoplasty for repairing medium-to-large-sized TM perforations compared with that of the conventional underlay cartilage.
