Abstract
- We investigated the utility of the duck-feet collagen extraction patching procedure in the traumatic tympanic membrane (TM) perforation via a comparison with spontaneous healing or paper patch. Fifty-six ears of adult male Sprague-Dawley rats, each weighing in the range of 250 to 300 g, were used for the animal studies. Sixteen rats had one-side ear in the control group and the opposite-side ear in the treated groups. The remaining twelve rats had a one-side ear with the duck-feet collagen patch and the opposite-side ear with a paper patch. The proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) expression cells were calculated among the 200 basal cells, and the expression percentage was identified as the labeling index. The healing of the perforation in the duck-feet collagen patch group was confirmed to be more rapid compared to the healing of the other groups. PCNA staining was observed in the migrating portion of PCNA enhanced cell to collagen scaffold in Post operative day (POD) 7 of collagen patch group. Thus, the adhesive effect of the duck-feet collagen patch to perforated margin was better than that of the paper patch. After completing the healing process, the collagen patch shrank and detached from the tympanic membrane (POD 14). In this study, we confirmed that the use of a duck-feet collagen patch had the advantage of early healing, inducing natural TM contour, and disappearing ability after the patch effect is complete.
