Description of Tympanoplasty:

What is Tympanoplasty?
Tympanoplasty, also known as eardrum repair, is a surgical procedure that repairs the perforated eardrum, named tympanic membrane. Tympanoplasty aids in restoring normal hearing that may have been damaged due to chronic infection or injury to the eardrum.
