Myringoplasty in Torrevieja: Surgery to Repair a Perforated Eardrum
At Hospital Quirónsalud Torrevieja, we have specialists in myringoplasty, a minimally invasive surgical technique used to repair a perforated eardrum and restore hearing.
What Is Myringoplasty?
Myringoplasty can be performed as an outpatient procedure under local anaesthetic and allows a perforated eardrum to be repaired in just 30 to 45 minutes, without the need for a hospital stay.
It is a quick, safe and highly effective procedure that uses the patient’s own tissue to promote natural healing, which is usually completed within approximately two weeks.
Why Is It Important to Repair a Perforated Eardrum?
Although an eardrum perforation may initially appear to be a minor problem, it can lead to:
- Recurrent ear infections
- Hearing loss
- Restrictions on everyday activities, including swimming, sport and the ability to hear clearly
Repairing a perforated eardrum can improve hearing, prevent complications and help patients regain their quality of life.
Advantages of Myringoplasty
- Outpatient procedure, with no general anaesthetic required
- Minimal incisions, with no visible scarring
- Rapid recovery and return to normal activities within a few days
- High success rates, even in patients with large perforations or older patients
Following the procedure, patients usually require only basic aftercare, such as ear drops, keeping the ear dry and avoiding strenuous physical activity for a few days. Within a short period of time, patients can return to activities involving water without the same concerns about infections or complications.
At Quirónsalud Torrevieja, our operating theatres are equipped with advanced microscopy and state-of-the-art technology to ensure maximum precision and safety during the procedure.
Our ENT specialists support patients throughout the entire process, providing personalised follow-up before, during and after surgery.
Benefits of Minimally Invasive ENT Surgery
- Shorter recovery times and hospital stays
- Smaller incisions and, in some procedures, no external incisions
- Less bruising and scarring
- Reduced anaesthetic requirements
- Less blood loss
- Reduced risk of infection
