Ossicular chain reconstruction: Titanium versus plastipore
The Laryngoscope, 2003AbstractObjective: To compare the complication rate and hearing results of a new, lightweight, titanium ossicular replacement prosthesis with Plastipore prostheses (Xomed, Jacksonville, FL). Study Design: Retrospective. Methods: Charts were reviewed for type of operation, type of prosthesis used, extrusion rate, prostheses failure rate, and hearing ...

Ossicular chain reconstruction: endoscopic or microscopic?
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 2020AbstractObjectiveTo compare the results of endoscopic and microscopic ossicular chain reconstruction surgery.MethodsPatients undergoing ossicular chain reconstruction surgery via an endoscopic (n = 31) or microscopic (n = 34) technique were analysed for age, gender, Middle Ear Risk Index, ossicular chain defect, incision type, ossicular chain ...

The styloid process in ossicular chain reconstruction
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1988AbstractOur pilot study reports twenty-six cases of resolved chronic otitis media in which the human, cadaveric styloid process was used as an ossicular graft material. A maximum follow-up of one year is presented in this paper. There was no extrusion or rejection of the styloid processes.

Use of plastipore for ossicular chain reconstruction: An evaluation.
The Laryngoscope, 1978AbstractWith the exception of stapes prostheses, previous use of implantable alloplastic materials in reconstructing the sound conducting mechanism in middle ear surgery has been uniformly unsuccessful. A new material composed of ultra‐high molecular weight polyethylene has been developed as a replacement for middle ear ossicles.

[Pitfalls in ossicular chain reconstruction].
HNO, 2005Today, the reconstruction of the ossicular chain is standard in middle ear surgery. It is performed as a one step procedure in cases of non-inflamed middle ears, as well as in cases of chronic ear diseases. In contrast to the past, a large tympanic cavity is today regularly reconstructed, which contributes to a normally ventilated middle ear ...

Ossicular chain reconstruction with plastipore prostheses.
The American journal of otology, 1981Proper reconstruction of the ossicular chain is a fundamental prerequisite for good hearing results in staged tympanoplasties. The history of modern middle ear surgery shows that various synthetic materials have been proposed in past years for sound conducting mechanism reconstruction but all gave discouraging results and were soon abandoned ...

[Synthetic implants in the reconstruction of the ossicular chain].
Acta otorrinolaringologica espanola, 1997Experience has revealed a higher rate of functional failure of biocompatible prostheses used in the surgical reconstruction of the middle ear than was reported initially. The cause of these failures was analyzed in a retrospective study of 135 patients who underwent middle ear reconstructive procedures: 47 of them involved implantation of plastic ...

[Reconstruction of the ossicular chain--current strategies].
Laryngo- rhino- otologie, 2010Besides eradication of chronic middle ear disease, the reconstruction of the sound conduction apparatus is a major goal of ear microsurgery. If available, the autogenous ossicle represents the gold standard as material for the partial ossicular reconstruction.
