Abstract

The research evaluates how well the interlay procedure functions in type 1 tympanoplasty operations for big central perforations along with studies of both graft uptake rates and auditory outcomes and treatment-related issues. 

The study analyzed between 2022 and 2024 patient with chronic otitis media in 60 subjects with dry central perforations between ages 15 and 55, Active otitis media and sensorineural hearing loss cases were not included in the trial. Outcomes were measured through otomicroscopy in combination with pure-tone audiometry using SPSS v20.0, 

A 96% successful graft uptake rate was achieved through operatively reducing air-bone gaps from 19.2 to 6.8 dB while complications affected only 1% of patients (P < 0.01). 

Healthcare professionals choose the interlay technique because it shows reliable outcomes and safety measures to handle large central perforations effectively.
