Cochlear implantation : experimental and clinical studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cochlear implantation makes hearing restoration possible in patients with severe to profound hearing loss. However, patients with residual hearing, where a cochlear implant may be combined with acoustic stimulation, and children with malformed cochleae ...

Middle Ear Neuroendocrine Tumor: Case Report of a Tympanic Adenoma

open access: yesJournal of International Advanced Otology
Middle ear neuroendocrine tumors (MeNETs) are an exceptionally rare occurrence. These benign tumors stem from the tympanic mucosa and can easily be misinterpreted by the clinician and the pathologist.

Passive and active middle ear implants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Besides eradication of chronic middle ear disease, the reconstruction of the sound conduction apparatus is a major goal of modern ear microsurgery. The material of choice in cases of partial ossicular replacement prosthesis is the autogenous ossicle.

Long‐term observations on ceramic ossicular replacement prosthesis (corp) [PDF]

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, 1988
AbstractLong‐term observations on the ceramic ossicular replacement prosthesis (CORP) were performed. Extrusion rates were 8.3% for CORP‐P and 5.2% for CORP‐T, with most extrusions occurring within 2 years. Hearing results were satisfactory. Air‐bone gaps at 1 year were within 10 dB in 44.8% with CORP‐P and 31.2% with CORP‐T.

Hydroxylapatite ossicular replacement prostheses: Results in 157 consecutive cases [PDF]

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, 1992
AbstractThe use of hydroxylapatite for ossicular chain reconstruction is increasing. In this study, hearing results and extrusion rate for 157 consecutive patients receiving hydroxylapatite prostheses were evaluated. Results were compared to those of a control group of patients who had received either homograft hone or Plasti‐Pore prostheses.Four (2.6%)
