Development and evaluation of a low-cost 3D-printed simulator for ossicular prosthesis placement [PDF]
Experienced otologists achieve better functional outcomes and fewer complications post-surgery. Otology requires high surgical precision, with risks including total and permanent hearing loss in the operated ear.

A New, Promising Experimental Ossicular Prosthesis: A Human Temporal Bone Study With Laser Doppler Vibrometry. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE We compared the sound transmission using different types of total ossicular replacement prostheses (TORP); we then studied the performance of a new TORP that we designed inspired by the columella, the single ossicle found in birds.

“Tumulus” stabilization of a total ossicular replacement prosthesis
Functional failure of total ossicular replacement prostheses (TORP) is often due to secondary displacement, ranging from simple subluxation to prosthesis extrusion following recurrence of severe tympanic membrane retraction. Several surgical techniques have been proposed to stabilize a TORP, mostly using superimposed non-organic or resorbable ...

Auditory outcomes and predictors following ossiculoplasty in cholesteatoma surgery: a retrospective analysis [PDF]
IntroductionMiddle ear cholesteatoma causes bone/ossicular erosion. This study aimed to analyze auditory outcomes after ossiculoplasty in cholesteatoma surgery and to identify predictors of hearing outcomes related to middle ear or surgery.MethodsA ...
