<p class="abstract" style="display: inline !important;"><strong>Background:</strong> The main purpose of surgery in cases chronic otitis media is to eradicate the infection and restore middle ear hearing function. Both intact tympanic membrane ossicular chain are essential for restoration these cases. world material science has provided otologists with array biomaterials reconstruction. use graft reconstruction significantly improved results after surgeries media.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Methods:</strong> study involved a total 50 patients presenting dry perforation disruption air-bone gap (ABG) >25 from July 2014 December 2019. were randomly allotted into two groups they underwent tympanomastoidectomy ossiculoplasty, one group homologous incus was used as ossiculoplasty second Teflon TORP/PORP material.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Results:</strong> present concluded that there no inter-group difference post-operative outcome however individually noted significant improvement hearing.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Conclusions:</strong> In postoperative similar both groups. Although numerous approaches have been proven be successful, single technique received universal acceptance.</p>
