Abstract This chapter focuses on surgical reconstruction of the ossicular chain to restore hearing in cases of conductive hearing loss. The procedure is often combined with tympanic membrane repair, in which case it is referred to as tympanoplasty.

Use of Glass Ionomer Cement for Incudostapedial Rebridging Ossiculoplasty [PDF]
Introduction: The ossicles of the middle ear are affected by the erosive effect of pathology in chronic otitis media. Ossicular reparation can be done via autologous incus or with alloplastic materials.

Minimally Invasive Intraoperative Laser Vibrometry (MIVIB)-A Peroperative Method to Measure Fixation of the Ossicular Chain. [PDF]
An objective assessment of the ossicular chain with laser vibrometry would likely improve the result of ossiculoplasty. MIVIB provides an objective assessment of the ossicular chain to identify specific fixations and therefore assist the surgeon in improving surgical outcomes. ABSTRACT Background Conductive hearing loss requires the surgeon to evaluate

Ossiculoplasty: Revisited [PDF]
Conductive hearing loss from ossicular chain abnormalities may result from either discontinuity or fixation of the ossicular chain. The ideal prosthesis for ossicular reconstruction should be biocompatible, stable, safe, readily available, and capable of yielding optimal sound transmission. At present ossiculoplasty techniques using alloplast materials
