The Value of High Resolution Computed Tomography in Detecting the Causes of Conductive Hearing Loss
INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) in assessing middle ear ossicular pathologies in cases with normal eardrum who underwent diagnostic tympanotomy due to conductive hearing ...

The Lenticular Process of the Incus [PDF]
Seventeenth century anatomists, including Franciscus Sylvius, identified a small bony structure between the distal end of the incus and the stapes that they believed was a separate and thus additional ossicle. The existence of the ossicle at the distal end of the long process of the incus was controversial for the next 200 years.

Alternative Fixation of an Active Middle Ear Implant at the Short Incus Process [PDF]
Introduction: Since 1996, the preferred approach for positioning the active middle-ear implant Vibrant Soundbridge© is a mastoidectomy and a posterior tympanotomy.

Safe explantation of a Vibrant Soundbridge with incus short process coupler: Case report and literature review [PDF]
We describe the first reported case of explantation of a Vibrant Soundbridge (VSB) with the floating mass transducer (FMT) fixed to the incus short process that was implanted 2 years before.

Considerations of isolated destruction of the short process of the incus in a case of cholesteatoma [PDF]
Cholesteatoma occurs frequently with the destruction of the ossicles. The most commonly eroded ossicle has been reported to be the incus. Many studies report destruction of the long process and body of the incus.

Conductive deafness with normal eardrum: absence of the long process of the incus. [PDF]
CONCLUSIONS: The most likely cause of lesions with an absence of the long process of the incus was congenital origin because many cases were associated with the stapedial anomaly.
