Seventy-three surgeons participated in a prospective audit of myringoplasty. They returned data on 1070 individual patients. Up to 12 months follow-up information was obtained. The mean number of myringoplasties performed per consultant in 1 year (1995) was 14.7 (95% confidence intervals (CI) 12.1 17.2). The main indication for performing the operation was to achieve an intact tympanic membrane. The mean graft take rate was 82.2%. When hearing improvement was the main indication for surgery it was improved in 67%. The use, or not, of an antibiotic had no significant influence on the graft take rate or the complication rate. Most complications reported were minor in nature.
