    The oval perforation in this left tympanic membrane was the result of a slap on the ear four days previously. The sudden increased air pressure in the external auditory canal produced this traumatic blast perforation. Acoustic trauma is the sustainment of an injury to the eardrum as a result of a very loud noise.
