Genetic basis of otosclerosis [PDF]
Introduction. Otosclerosis is a disorder of the bone labyrinth and stapes resulting in conductive hearing loss. The genetic basis of otosclerosis still remains unknown. We aimed at reporting a comprehensive review of up-to-date knowledge on genetic basis

Does bilateral otosclerosis make pre-operative bone conduction more inaccurate?
Objectives: To assess whether bilateral otosclerosis renders pre-operative bone conduction more inaccurate by increasing the Carhart effect. Methods: Retrospective review of a database of pre and post-operative audiograms of 745 ears with otosclerosis ...

Imaging Studies in Otosclerosis: An Up-to-date Comprehensive Review
Introduction Otosclerosis is a primary osteodystrophy of the otic capsule, frequently responsible for acquired hearing loss in adults. Although the diagnostic value of imaging investigations in otosclerosis is debatable, they might still be employed with

Bisphosphonate therapy in otosclerosis: A scoping review
Objective Otosclerosis, a leading cause of deafness in adults, results from defective bone remodeling of the otic capsule. Bisphosphonates have been used to decrease bone remolding in many diseases, including otosclerosis.
