Protocol for a validation study of the translated stapesplasty outcome test 25 for measurement of disease-specific quality of life in Dutch patients with otosclerosis

open access: yesBMJ Open, 2019
Introduction Otosclerosis is a common cause of acquired conductive hearing loss and can be treated using hearing aids or surgically. Surgical success rates or surgical results are usually reported using pure-tone audiometric thresholds and/or speech ...

The Influence of Incudostapedial Joint Separation on the Middle Ear Transfer Function [PDF]

open access: yesClinical 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

Anatomical Characteristics of the Facial Nerve in Patients With Cochlear Hypoplasia

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To quantitatively characterize the spatial relationships between intratemporal facial nerve segments and key cochlear implantation (CI) landmarks in cochlear hypoplasia (CH), and to compare these features with age‐matched CI recipients with normal inner ear anatomy, thereby informing preoperative planning and facial nerve ...

Labyrinthine Abnormalities on MRI in Untreated Otosclerosis: Prevalence and Clinical Relevance

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 8, Page 3559-3568, August 2026.
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.

Comparison of Manual Versus Robot‐Assisted Piston Prosthesis Placement and Crimping in a 3D‐Printed Temporal Bone Model

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 11, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives To reduce operator‐dependent variability and improve surgical precision, robot‐assisted piston prosthesis placement and crimping during otosclerosis surgery may represent a promising approach. However, dedicated microsurgical forceps for this application are not yet available in clinical practice.

Pediatric Cholesteatoma Presenting as Persistent Otorrhea: A Case of Delayed Diagnosis Across Multiple ENT Specialists

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Pediatric cholesteatoma is an aggressive but uncommon middle ear condition characterized by keratinizing squamous epithelium that can progressively erode adjacent structures. It is associated with faster bone destruction and higher recurrence rates in children than adults, and its symptoms often resemble chronic otitis media, which may delay ...

How I Do It: A Stepwise Surgical Technique for Fisch Class B Glomus Tympanicum

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 7, Page 3225-3228, July 2026.
We describe a stepwise retroauricular microsurgical workflow for bulky tympanic paragangliomas, combining circumferential canaloplasty with temporary removal and replacement of the tympanomeatal flap and malleus to optimize exposure and bleeding control.
