About this trial
This study aimed to compare the effect of adding HA versus PRP to endoscopic FGM in cases of small or medium-sized central TM perforation in the form of:
1. Evaluation of the graft uptake rate. 2. Evaluation and comparing audiological outcomes. 3. Finding out intraoperative and postoperative morbidity.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers

Conductive gap on audiometry not more than 40 dB.
Disqualifiers

Concurrent URTI .
CSOM with dry marginal perforation
Patients who didn't come for follow up.

Treatments tested in this trial
enoscopic Myringoplasty
Procedure/Surgerygeneral anesthesia. A single surgeon will perform all surgeries. * A small incision in the rim of ear lobule on the same side of the operated ear, a small piece of adipose tissue will be removed according to the experience of the surgeon. * Using 0 angulation endoscope visualization, the edges of the perforation will be refreshed and deepithelialized with a sharp Rosen's needle * sponge gel (Gelfoam) will pushed through TM perforation into the middle ear to support the graft and to avoid its medialization * the previously removed fat graft will be inserted through the perforation adjusted so most of the fat piece lying medial to the perforation and small part laterally in patients group A: 0.5 mL of HA vial will be injected directly over the fat graft and the TM remnant. After 5 minutes small gelfoam pieces soaked in 0.5 mL of HA vial will applied over the fat in patients group B PRPG was inserted into the external auditory canal on the outer face of the TM remnant and fat
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
graft taking
Endoscopic examination of TM: Graft will considered as successfully taken if there is no residual TM perforation after 3 months postoperativly.
Secondary outcomes
Audiotympanogram
effect on hearing by using Audiotympanogram will be done three months post-operative
Otorrhea
presence or absence of otorrhea by history and ear examination
