Implantation of Electromagnetic Ossicular Replacement Device
Semi-implantable hearing aids consisting of permanent middle ear implanted magnet, either partial ossicular replacement prostheses (PORP's) or total ossicular replacement prostheses (TORP's) driven by an electromagnet placed in the ear canal have been tested on six patients undergoing surgery for chronic otitis.
