Effect of preoperative hearing level on success of stapes surgery.
OBJECTIVE We evaluated functional results after stapedotomy in terms of the influence of preoperative hearing threshold. STUDY DESIGN Case series and chart review. SUBJECTS AND METHODS We classified 141 patients according to preoperative mean air-conduction threshold: 40 to 54 dB, group 1; 55 to 69 dB, group 2; and 70 to 89 dB, group 3. Speech discrimination scores also were noted. RESULT...
متن کاملRevision operations after previous stapes surgery for persisting hearing loss.
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to find out the reasons of the recurrent or persisting hearing loss after previous stapes surgery indicated for otosclerosis. BACKGROUND Revision stapes surgery is a relatively safe surgical method. Recurrent or persisting conductive hearing loss is commonly caused by prosthesis dislocation and adhesions in the oval window. Hearing loss is directly proporti...
متن کاملA systematic review of the effect of piston diameter in stapes surgery for otosclerosis on hearing results.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of piston diameter in primary stapedotomy for otosclerosis patients measured by hearing outcome. DATA SOURCES PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library. REVIEW METHODS A systematic search was conducted. Studies reporting original data on the effect of piston diameter on pure-tone audiometric results in patients undergoing primary stapedotomy for otosclerosis ...
متن کاملStapes surgery under local anaesthesia
In the UK, stapes surgery is performed almost universally under general anaesthesia. In 1984 there was consensus that local anaesthesia should be the technique of choice in stapes surgery. Despite reports of successful use of local anaesthesia for middle ear surgery, this is still not widely accepted practice in the UK. We describe the senior author's technique for local anaesthetic stapes sur...
متن کاملA Randomised, Double Blind Trial of N-Acetylcysteine for Hearing Protection during Stapes Surgery
BACKGROUND Otosclerosis is a disorder that impairs middle ear function, leading to conductive hearing loss. Surgical treatment results in large improvement of hearing at low sound frequencies, but high-frequency hearing often suffers. A likely reason for this is that inner ear sensory cells are damaged by surgical trauma and loud sounds generated during the operation. Animal studies have shown ...
