Reassessing the Rinne Test: Importance of a Three-Frequency Tuning Fork Evaluation. [PDF]
OTO OpenAbstract Objective (1) To evaluate the accuracy of the Rinne test in the diagnosis of conductive hearing loss (CHL) at the frequencies of 512, 1024 and 2048 Hz comparing to standard audiometry. (2) To define a possible linear relationship between the frequencies of the tuning forks and the proportional increase in the air‐bone gap (ABG).

Bilateral Hearing Loss Following Unilateral Stapes Surgery
Otorhinolaryngology and Facial Plastic Surgery, 2015 Otosclerosis is a common cause of conductive hearing loss. It is surgically treated with stapedectomy or stapedotomy. Sensory- neural hearing loss is an uncommon but known complication of this surgery. A 25-year-old Iranian female patient with bilateral

Stapes Surgery in Far-Advanced Otosclerosis
Ear, Nose & Throat Journal, 2023 Introduction: Surgical treatment of patients with far-advanced otosclerosis (FAO) has not yet been standardized. Patients with FAO are the candidates for stapes surgery or cochlear implant (CI). Although many surgeons consider stapes surgery as the first

A Novel 3D Printed Multi-Material Simulator for Endoscopic Stapes Surgery: The "3D Stapes Trainer". [PDF]
LaryngoscopeThe 3D Stapes Trainer represents a promising platform for training in endoscopic stapes surgery. This simulator consists of a multi‐use temporal bone holder and a single‐use middle ear box, printed with material Jetting 3D printing technology. Eight participants in a university ear surgery course used the simulator to perform endoscopic stapes surgery.
