Ergonomics of 3D‐Exoscope Versus the Operating Microscope in Otologic Surgery

ANZ Journal of Surgery, Volume 95, Issue 9, Page 1862-1868, September 2025.
Microscope use in otologic surgery is associated with a high degree of ergonomic risk and musculoskeletal pain. A prospective comparative study was undertaken demonstrating a 3D‐exoscope has improved ergonomics compared to the operating microscope. Ongoing development is required to improve the ergonomics in otologic surgery on a larger scale. ABSTRACT

A Multi‐Center Study of Ossiculoplasty Hearing Outcomes and a Grading Scale of Ear Environment Risk

The Laryngoscope, Volume 135, Issue S2, Page S1-S11, April 2025.
This is a clinical article that analyzed data from a large multi‐institution database of ossiculoplasty outcomes to determine which ear environment risk factors independently are associated with postoperative hearing outcomes. The identified risk factors were utilized to create a novel ear environment risk‐weighted grading scale with risk groupings the

Histopathological Patterns of Otosclerosis Progression: Exploring Otic Capsule and Round Window Involvement

The Laryngoscope, Volume 135, Issue 1, Page 324-330, January 2025.
The objective of this study is to assess and characterize the occurrence of round window (RW) involvement in otosclerosis cases. We selected archival temporal bones from donors with otosclerosis and studied otosclerotic foci. Among donors with RW involvement, ones with continuous, large lesions that extended from the oval window associated with ...
