What is Tympanolysis?

Tympanolysis is a surgical procedure aimed at improving hearing by addressing issues in the middle ear, particularly the tympanic membrane (eardrum) and the ossicles (the small bones in the ear). It often involves the reconstruction or repair of the eardrum and may be performed to treat chronic ear infections, perforations, or other conditions affecting hearing. The goal is to restore the normal function of the middle ear and enhance auditory perception.
