Abstract

Tympanosclerosis is a chronic non-suppurative disease of the middle ear, a distinctive characteristic of which is the formation of specific sclerotic foci in the thickness of the mucous membrane of the middle ear and / or the tympanic membrane, which leads to damage to the sound-conducting apparatus and hearing loss. According to the literature, the prevalence of this pathology ranges from 3.3 to 33% among all patients with chronic otitis media, which allows us to speak of tympanosclerosis as a common disease.
