The tympanic membrane allograft myringoplasty is used for the radical treatment of chronic middle ear disease and the repair of tympanic perforations which are sequellae of the chronic middle ear conditions. In the first part, basic principles, tissue bank and surgical procedures, are explained in detail. The second part shows that this technique ensures not only total eradication of the pathology, but is favoured by the specific morpho-, physio- and bio-compatibilities of the allograft.
