Stapedoplasty – surgical treatment of hearing loss caused by otosclerosis
Social Welfare: Interdisciplinary Approach, 2016 Otosclerosis is a condition of abnormal bone growth around the stapes bone, one of the tiny bones of the middle ear. This leads to a fixation of the stapes. The stapes bone must move freely for the ear to work properly and hear well. Hearing loss is the

Variation of the stapes and its surrounding anatomical structures based on micro-computed tomography
Folia MorphologicaBACKGROUND: Stapedotomy is the most efficient treatment for otosclerosis. The anatomical structure of the operation area is complex, but it has a great impact on the postoperative effect.

Labyrinthine Abnormalities on MRI in Untreated Otosclerosis: Prevalence and Clinical Relevance
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.In untreated otosclerosis with labyrinthine symptoms, delayed 3D FLAIR MRI rarely demonstrates endolymphatic hydrops but frequently reveals blood–labyrinth barrier (BLB) disruption. BLB enhancement is spatially associated with cochlear endosteal and round window involvement and increases with the severity of the hearing loss phenotype.

Transcanal Endoscopic Stapes Surgery
B-ENTStapes surgery is traditionally based on microscopic approach. For several years, endoscopy developed from a combined approach as a complementary device to microscope to an exclusive transcanal approach in various fields of ear surgery.

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.Abstract Objective To quantify the cumulative number of images needed to scan (NNS) with preoperative high‐resolution temporal bone computed tomography (HR‐TBCT) to yield a change in management in patients undergoing primary stapes surgery for otosclerosis‐related hearing loss. Study Design Retrospective cohort.

The Influence of Incudostapedial Joint Separation on the Middle Ear Transfer Function [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2014 ObjectivesOne of the risks in middle ear surgery is high frequency hearing loss. It is believed that manipulations on the middle ear ossicles with the instruments may cause overstimulation of the inner ear and damage of the hear cells. Controversy arises

Subjective Visual Vertical Can be an Effective Tool to Evaluate Vestibular Function of Stapedotomy
World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective To investigate if the subjective visual vertical/horizontal (SVV/SVH) can be used to evaluate the otolith organ of otosclerosis and stapedotomy. Design A total of 19 patients who were diagnosed with otosclerosis and underwent surgical treatment in our hospital were collected.
