Why does a natural myringostapediopexy cause minimal hearing loss?
Clinical Case Reports, 2021 Natural myringostapediopexy is a result of tympanic membrane retraction with automastoidectomy that causes the tympanic membrane to plaster onto the stapes directly. It causes minimal conductive hearing impairment.
