Surgical Methods: Myoperiosteal flap on the muscle pedicle was prepared by using
temporal fascia after making a postauricular incision.
Comparison of hearing levels and tympanic membrane healing obtained bycartilage palisade and
temporal fascia in tympanoplasty technique: preliminary results.
To stabilize the diced cartilage fragment, Daniel used autologous deep
temporal fascia as a wrapping material in diced rhinoplasty, without absorption.
Postauricular fascia is thicker than
temporal fascia but can be folded to wrap diced cartilage grafts.
After surgical division of the bands, reconstruction can be carried out using split skin graft, palatal island flap, superficial
temporal fascia flap, bilateral tongue flaps, buccal fat pad, bilateral nasolabial flaps and bi pedicled radial forearm free flap.
Because this layer is continuous laterally with the
temporal fascia overlying the temporalis muscle, it is particularly sensitive to jaw tension.
The flap was separated from the underlying deep
temporal fascia easily, as the loose areolar tissue on the deep surface presents minimal resistance to elevation.
In our study, we have compared the grafting and acoustic properties of
temporal fascia with cartilage--perichondrium (composite graft) especially in ears with large perforation and an unfavorable Eustachian tube function.
More proximally, it was dissected superficial to the
temporal fascia.
We have developed a new technique for reconstructive cranioplasty that involves the use of hydroxyapatite cement and a pericranial/deep
temporal fascia graft.
The tympanic membrane perforation was freshened, and a
temporal fascia underlay graft was placed.
We performed a right subtotal petrosectomy, a repair of the tegmen defect with a
temporal fascia and fat graft secured with fibrin glue, and a blind sac closure of the right external auditory canal.
