Stapedotomy or Stapedectomy: Does It Really Matter? [PDF]
Introduction Otosclerosis leads to stapes fixation and consequent conductive hearing loss. Surgery is the mainstay of treatment, and it can be achieved through small fenestra stapedotomy or stapedectomy. Despite the first being favored by most,

Effect of closing material on hearing rehabilitation in stapedectomy and stapedotomy: A finite element analysis [PDF]
Stapedotomy or stapedectomy operations are often performed to treat otosclerosis. During the operation, the space created by bone removal is usually filled with a closing material such as fat or fascia. In this study, the effect of the Young’s modulus of

Outcomes of Endoscopic Stapedectomy: Systematic Review [PDF]
Introduction Stapes surgery was traditionally performed with the use of microscopy either through postauricular, endaural or transcanal approaches. Endoscopic stapedectomy ushered a revolution as a new technique with less complications.

Intravestibular Stapes Prosthesis Protrusion Causing Post Stapedectomy Vertigo
Post stapedectomy vertigo is most often a self-limiting postoperative complication. Sometimes vertigo occurs years after operation and different etiologies, non-surgically as well as related to previous surgery, have to be excluded. High resolution CT of

A long-term follow up of a personal series of 79 second ear stapedectomies indicates that the procedure can be undertaken with minimal complications. No bilateral dead ears or vestibular disasters have occurred. The results were satisfactory in 87.5% of ears, and bilaterally symmetrical hearing with an air-bone gap of 30 dB or less was achieved in 24%

Is the Carhart notch a predictive factor of hearing results after stapedectomy?
SUMMARY The Carhart notch (CN) is a depression in the bone-conduction audiogram of patients with clinical otosclerosis. The middle frequencies from 0.5 to 2 kHz, which correspond to the resonance frequency of the middle ear, can be substantially improved

Primary Stapedectomy: A Retrospective Review of Surgical Results Using a Cold Steel Technique and Pre-Operative CT Correlates. [PDF]
Importance Stapedectomy is an effective treatment option for patients with symptomatic otosclerosis. A common surgical technique today is laser stapedotomy, although the equipment required adds a significant cost to the procedure and may not be available
