Methods: Retrospective review of single surgeon experience. Results: During a 3 year period, 30 children underwent 31 endoscopic or endoscopically assisted transcanal tympanoplasties by the senior surgeon using tragal cartilage/perichondrial inlay grafts. There were 22 boys and 8 girls, ranging in age from 3.5 to 17 years (median 6 years). All tragal cartilage grafts (31/31; 100%) survived. Twenty-seven surgeries (27/31; 82%) resulted in an intact drum (17/31; 55%) or a microperforation (10/31; 32%). In four cases (4/31; 13%) significant perforations formed in previously unaffected portions of the drum. Conclusion: Transcanal endoscopic cartilage inlay tympanoplasty offers a practical, minimally invasive approach to tympanoplasty for children of any age. It avoids postauricular or endaural incisions, tympanomeatal flap elevation, and canalplasty. Graft survival is uniform. Microperforation at the graft margins remained in 1/3 of children. Technical modifications may lead to higher rates of tympanic closure.Glenn IsaacsonJonathan A.
