Abstract
Background

Tinnitus is a common disease in public. It is not only associated with neuronal, muscular, vascular pathologies, but also with related psychological parameters. In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between tinnitus, anxiety and depression in patients undergoing tympanoplasty.

Methods

Patients with tinnitus and operated for chronic otitis media were included in our study. Before and after the operation, tinnitus handicap inventory, beck anxiety and depression scales were filled and pre- and postoperative values were compared. In addition, our patients were divided into two groups as tinnitus improve and did not improve and differences between them were investigated.

Results

148 patients were included in our study. Of 148 patients, 60 were male and 88 were female. There was no significant difference between the patients with and without tinnitus when the dermografic features, hearing levels and physical examination findings were compared.

After the operation, the patients who did not improve tinnitus had higher levels of depression and depression than others (<0.001).

Conclusion

As a result of our study, anxiety and depression scales of the patients whose tinnitus did not improve were found to be higher than the patients whose tinnitus improved.
