DIMERIC MEMBRANE

MYRINGOTOMY:
DIMERIC MEMBRANE

Description : Myringotomy incisions usually heal without leaving any visible scars or defects in the fibrous middle layer of the tympanic membrane.

Occasionally, as seen here, a round defect may be left in the fibrous middle layer of the drum after a tube has extruded.

The thin dimeric membrane that covers this defect in the thick fibrous middle layer is abnormally transparent.
