Flexible Fiber Optic Carbon-Dioxide Laser Assisted Stapedotomy in Otosclerosis
Objective. The aim of this study is to analyze the hearing and vestibular outcome of patients with otosclerosis who have been operated on by fiber optic flexible CO2 laser. Study Design. A preliminary and retrospective study was conducted in 30 patients with otosclerosis. Results. Comparative analysis of average air conduction thresholds (53.41 ± 11.81 dB versus 26.37 ± 11.04 dB) and air-bone g...
متن کاملLaser Versus Drill-Assisted Stapedotomy for the Treatment of Otosclerosis: A Randomized-Controlled Trial
laseror microdrill-assisted technique may enable better outcomes in terms of intraand post-operative complications as well as of hearing gain as compared with classical stapedotomy technique. Materials and Methods: Eighty-two subjects undergoing primary stapes surgery for otosclerosis were enrolled for this study as having a least pure tone average (PTA) air-bone gap (ABG) of 35 dB. Patients we...
متن کاملThe Hearing Results in Otosclerosis after Stapedotomy
Otosclerosis is the most frequent cause of conductive hearing loss in patients with intact tympanic membrane. It can be treated by surgery with various techniques. Because of limited manipulation and comparably similar results, stapedotomy at present is preferred over other surgical techniques by most surgeons. Here we present the operative results of 114 otosclerotic patients who underwent sta...
متن کاملVestibular Schwannomas Microsurgery Assisted by Flexible Hand-Held 2 micro-Thulium-Fiber Laser
Background: Vestibular Schwannoma (VS) is one of the skull base tumors originating from vestibular portion of eighth cranial nerve. Recently, 2 micro-Thulium laser is used in the surgery of some intracranial tumors. Objectives: Assessing the efficacy of 2 micro-Thulium flexible hand-held laser fiber (RevolixjrÒ) in microsurgical removal of VS. Materials and Methods: This retrospect...
متن کاملFiber-Optic Fluorescence Carbon Dioxide Sensor for Environmental Monitoring
Fiber-optic sensors were developed for monitoring dissolved carbon dioxide in water samples in the 0 to 900 ppm concentration range. A pH-sensitive fluorescent dye (HPTS) was reacted with a cationic quaternary ammonium salt to form an ion pair which was electrostatically bound to the surface of particles of aminocellulose which then were dispersed into a gas-permeable silicone polymer. The gree...
