Hann is a 11-year-old boy from Cambodia, currently in grade two. He has two older brothers and enjoys doing his homework, drawing pictures, and watching cartoons.
Hann began having ear discharge and tinnitus in both ears when he was one-year-old. His tympanic membrane is perforated on each side, which causes him hearing loss and headaches.
“I am unhappy when I have ear pain and I can not hear my teacher clearly at school,” shared Hann in his pre-operative interview at our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC).
Hann traveled two hours with his mother to arrive at CSC for treatment. ENT surgeons at CSC will perform a myringoplasty on the left side. This will stop the discharge and improve his hearing. He will no longer need to worry about pain or discomfort, and will be able to participate in school without worrying about hearing his teacher.
