Radyofrekans ve insizyonel miringotominin miringotomi açıklık sürelerine etkileri
Amaç: Radyofrekansın, miringotomi açıklığını uzatabilme amaçlı kullanılabilirliği araştırıldı.Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışmada 18 guinea pig kullanıldı. Çalışma grubundaki miringotomiler sağ kulaklara radyofrekans ile yapıldı. Kontrol grubu olaraksol kulaklara insizyonel miringotomi yapıldı. Radyofrekans ile yapılan miringotomilerde ENTec koblatörplazma cerrahi sistem cihazı kullanıldı. Timpanikmembranlar işlem sonrası 5, 7, 10 ve 14. günlerdeotomikroskop ile incelendi. İki gruptaki kapanma süreleri Mann-Whitney U-testi ile karşılaştırıldı.Bulgular: Bütün miringotomiler ameliyat sonrasıonuncu güne kadar kapandı. İstatistiksel olarak ikigrup arasında kapanma süreleri açısından anlamlıfarklılık izlenmedi.Sonuç: Radyofrekans, miringotomi için güvenilir veminimal destrüktif bir yöntemdir, fakat uzun bir miringotomi açıklığı sağlayamamaktadır

The effects of radiofrequency and incisional myringotomy on the duration of patency
Objectives: We investigated whether radiofrequen- cy could prolong the patency of myringotomy.Materials and Methods: Eighteen guinea pigs were enrolled in this study. Myringotomies were created by radiofrequency in the right ears in the study group using the ENTec coblator plasma surgery system, while the left ears had incisional myringotomies as the control group. After the myringotomies, the tympanic membranes were examined with otomicroscopy on the 5th, 7th, 10th, and 14th days. Closure times of the two groups were compared by the Mann-Whitney U-test.Results: Ali the myringotomies were closed up to the tenth postoperative day. There was no significant difference between the two groups with respect to closure times.Conclusion: Radiofrequency is a safe and minimal- ly destructive method to perform a myringotomy, but it does not provide long-time patency.
