The Current Situation and Development of Endoscopic Ear Surgery in China
ABSTRACT Endoscopic ear surgery has been widely performed in China since 2015 due to the development and rapid popularization of endoscopic technology. Due to the relative shortness of the auditory meatus, only a fixed endoscope is required in many cases, rather than a motion similar to a nasal endoscope, and uncontrollable bleeding is virtually non ...

Improved Bone Conduction and Hearing Outcomes After Stapes Surgery for Otosclerosis
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the improvement in bone conduction (BC) thresholds after stapes surgery for otosclerosis, compare the outcomes of surgical techniques, and analyze the short‐ and long‐term results to inform treatment strategies. Methods We retrospectively reviewed data from 173 patients (188 ears) who underwent total stapedectomy, partial

Long‐Term Cochlear Implant Sensitivity in Patients With Far Advanced Otosclerosis
This study aimed to evaluate mid‐ and long‐term cochlear implant fitting in otosclerosis patients compared to a control group. It suggested significant tissue remodeling at the cochlear apex in otosclerosis patients, likely increasing resistance to electrical currents delivered by the implant.
