Accepted Answer

Occasionally : Occasionally titanium tubes are used.  The type of tube that is used is usually the preference of the surgeon.  Most tubes will stay 3-12 months, and anything over 24 months should be removed because of the risk of a permanent hole in the ear drum is higher.  This would need to be fixed.  Some special tubes that stay in longer ar the "t" tubes that can stay in a prolonged period.
