Short-process incudo-stapedioplasty in congenital ear malformation. [PDF]

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investig Otolaryngol
We report a novel surgical technique for stapes surgery in a patient with ear malformation and facial nerve anomaly, accompanied by a surgical video. The technique involved anchoring a Teflon wire piston to the short process of the incus. Postoperatively, the patient exhibited acceptable hearing improvement, with a 30 dB gain.

Optical Coherence Tomography for the Diagnosis and Evaluation of Human Otitis Media [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We report the application of optical coherence tomography (OCT) to the diagnosis and evaluation of otitis media (OM). Whereas conventional diagnostic modalities for OM, including standard and pneumatic otoscopy, are limited to visualizing the surface of ...

Comparative Study of Autologous Ossicular Graft versus Titanium Prosthesis (TORP & PORP) in Ossiculoplasty

open access: yesBengal Journal of Otolaryngology and Head Neck Surgery, 2017
Introduction This prospective cohort study aims to analyze and compare the outcomes of ossiculoplasty in terms of hearing results, intra and post operative course, using autograft incus and titanium middle ear prosthesis.

Nanoporous silica coatings on implant surfaces: characterization, stability, biocompatibility and drug release properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Nanoporous silica coatings for drug release purposes were prepared on medical implants. As substrate, we chose Bioverit® II, which is a commercial available glass-mica ceramic implant material. The coating was prepared by a dip-coating technique in which

The effect of preserved stapedial superstructure on hearing improvement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Introduction: Ossiculoplasty can be carried out in a number of ways, depending on the anatomical and functional conditions encountered during otosurgery and the experience of a given centre.

Do high‐frequency air‐bone gaps persist after ossiculoplasty?

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, 2020
Objectives Conventional reporting of postoperative hearing outcomes utilizes a pure‐tone averaged air‐bone gap (ABG) that is biased toward low frequencies. Consequently, a high‐frequency ABG after otologic surgery may go unnoticed.

Prediction of hearing outcomes in chronic otitis media patients underwent tympanoplasty using ossiculoplasty outcome parameter staging or middle ear risk indices.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
PurposeOssiculoplasty outcome parameter staging (OOPS) and middle ear risk index (MERI) are the most commonly used indices for predicting prognosis of patients with chronic otitis media (COM).
