They were randomly divided into three groups and received conservative treatment, epidermal growth factor (EGF) via Gelfoam patching, or edge-approximation plus Gelfoam patching respectively. Patients in each group were further divided into two subgroups according to the eardrum flap area ≤ 1/2 or 〉1/2 of the perforation size. The healing rate and mean closure time after tympanic membrane perforation were evaluated at three months.Results: Of the total 291 participants, 281 were included in the final statistical analysis. The area of curled edge did not affect the healing outcome significantly in any groups (P〉0.05). The healing rate varied slightly: 90.7% vs 92.3% in spontaneous healing group, 98.2% vs 97.4% in EGF via Gelfoam patching group, and 96.5% vs 100% in edge-approximation plus Gelfoam patching group. In addition, in all groups the area of curled edge did not affect the mean closure time significantly (P〉0.05). The closure time was (32.3±2.4) d vs (30.6±3.1) d in sponaneous healing group, (13.4±2.5) d vs (13.1± 1.9) d in EGF via Gelfoam patching group, and (11.9±3.1) d vs (12.2±2.1) d in edge-approximation plus Gelfoam patching group.Conclusion: The eardrum flap area of traumatic eardrum perforation does not significantly affect the clinical outcomes.展开更多
