Short‐process incudo‐stapedioplasty in congenital ear malformation [PDF]

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology
Objectives Although various stapedotomy and stapedectomy techniques exist, anchoring the piston can be challenging. We present a novel surgical approach for treating congenital stapes malformations with an atypical facial nerve trajectory.

Audiometric changes following oral versus local gel foam steroid administration after stapedectomy in otosclerosis patients: a retrospective comparative study [PDF]

Frontiers in Medicine
This study compared the effects of two postoperative steroid administration routes—oral prednisone versus local intraoperative dexamethasone gel foam—on hearing outcomes and complications following primary stapedectomy for otosclerosis.

Stapedotomy or Stapedectomy: Does It Really Matter? [PDF]

International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology
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,

Unilateral versus bilateral stapes surgery: A comparative study on auditory outcome and quality of life [PDF]

Journal of Otology
Otosclerosis is a well-known disease which mainly affects middle-aged female patients, causing conductive or mixed hearing loss. Diagnosis is essentially made through a complete audiometric battery testing, while treatment substantially relies on stapes ...

Effect of closing material on hearing rehabilitation in stapedectomy and stapedotomy: A finite element analysis

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
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

Comparison of Short-Term Hearing Outcome in Stapedotomy Using either Vein or Fat (Adipose Tissue) as Sealing Material

International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2023
Introduction Otosclerosis is a common cause of conductive hearing loss in the adult population that is caused by fixation of the stapes footplate. Cochlear otosclerosis may also present with sensorineural or mixed hearing loss.
