| Objective. To assess hearing improvement & TM healing in Cases of Subtotal TM perforation who had tympanoplasty using single layer graft Technique. Method: 18 cases of Subtotal TM perforation had Microscopic postauricular Tympanoplasty using single layer perichondrium / cartilage island graft (composite graft) in underlay manner between 2020 and 2021 and Audiogram was done 1 week & 3 months pre & postoperative respectively. Results: 6 of 18 cases had small residual TM perforation postoperative and preoperative mean ABG was 22.65 ± 8.46 dB and became 20.30 ± 9.83 dB postoperatively .Conclusion: Postauricular Tympanoplasty using single layer graft in is still valuable technique for cases with subtotal TM perforation.
