Polyethylene Sponge Total Ossicular Replacement Prosthesis: A Histopathologic Study
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1982The histopathologic findings of a functioning high-density polyethylene sponge (Plastipore) total ossicular replacement prosthesis in a patient who died of unrelated causes are reported herein. The lack of inflammatory cell infiltration of foreign-body giant cells within, or adjacent to, the prosthesis helps substantiate the safety and efficacy of ...

PlastiporeTM total ossicular replacement prosthesis
The Laryngoscope, 1976AbstractIn those ears in which the incus and/or malleus are missing or not suitable, a columella made of high density polyethylene sponge has proven to be very effective. Tissue readily grows into the large pores of this material so that it is well tolerated in the body.

Pediatric ossiculoplasty with titanium total ossicular replacement prosthesis
Laryngoscope, 2015To assess the medium-term efficacy of total ossicular reconstruction with a titanium total ossicular replacement prosthesis (TORP) in children.Case series.A consecutive series of children receiving an adjustable-length titanium TORP was identified from a prospective surgical and audiological database.

Influence of the shape and material on the behaviour of a total ossicular replacement prosthesis
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 2004To study the influence of the shape and the material on the behaviour of a total ossicular replacement prosthesis (TORP).It was hypothesized that the influence of the shape and material of a TORP on its performance could be quantified using a simple mechanical model. The prosthesis is represented simply by an axisymmetric shape and two models are used.

AbstractObjective Since 1993, titanium prostheses have been used in Europe as a biocompatible implant for ossicular reconstruction. More recently, the titanium ossicular prosthesis has become more widely available in the United States as a newer means of surgical restoration of hearing.

Stabilization of total ossicular replacement prosthesis using cartilage “shoe” graft
American Journal of Otolaryngology, 2016We aimed to determine the effect of a cartilage shoe graft placed between the foot of the TORP and the stapes footplate on hearing improvement and long-term displacement rates.Patients who underwent TORP ossiculoplasty were divided into two groups. The TORP-alone group consisted of 32 patients who underwent TORP placement without cartilage shoe graft ...

During reconstruction of the ossicular chain, there is a need to address the forces and loads caused by the ambient atmospheric pressure variations and the resulting tympanic membrane movements. It is understood that when a rigid middle ear prosthesis is inserted the malleoincudal joint, a keyfactor in controlling pressure variations in the middle ear ...

Retraction pocket and extrusion of the ossicular prosthesis remain significant problems after tympanoplasty in cholesteatoma surgery. This study presents an alternative surgical technique with a total compact ossicular prosthesis including cartilage, wire, and temporalis fascia. A total of 42 patients[for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]

AbstractObjectives:After tympanoplasty using a total ossicular replacement prosthesis, many unsatisfactory hearing results are due to dislocation of the prosthesis.Material and methods:We developed a cartilage guide for stabilising the total ossicular replacement prosthesis in the oval window niche. An oval-shaped piece of cartilage measuring 2.5 × 3.5
