Effect of Ossicular Reconstruction on Tinnitus
Background and Objective:Tinnitus is hearing a sound without an external source, which occurs anywhere in the head and one or both ears. It is one of the most common symptoms associated with hearing loss due to chronic otitis media. This study aimed to determine the effect of autologous primary ossicular reconstruction on the recovery of tinnitus due to chronic otitis media. Materials and Meth...
متن کاملSurgical reconstruction of the ossicular chain with custom 3D printed ossicular prosthesis
Background: Conductive hearing loss due to ossicular abnormalities occurs from many causes, including trauma, infection, cholesteatoma, surgery and congenital anomalies. Surgical reconstruction of the ossicular chain is a wellestablished procedure for repair of ossicular defects, but is still plagued by high failure rates. Underlying disease and proper sizing of prostheses are two challenges th...
متن کاملUsefulness of a ventilation tube as a partial ossicular replacement prosthesis (PORP) in ossiculoplasty in patients with chronic otitis media
BACKGROUND The principal objective of ossiculoplasty is to reconstruct the sound-conducting system in the ear to the best possible degree after the elimination of pathological lesions from the middle ear. The ossicular chain is reconstructed with the use of the patient's own properly modelled ossicles and synthetic prostheses. The objective of the study was to assess the degree of hearing impro...
متن کاملFeasibility of ossicular chain reconstruction with resin cement.
INTRODUCTION Disjunction of ossicular chain is a common finding in middle ear chronic disease. In addition to ossicular interposition, various materials have been used for reconstruction, such as ceramic prostheses, polyethylene, and titanium. OBJECTIVE Because of the high cost of the available options, the authors propose to reconstruct the ossicular chain with resin cement, a material typic...
متن کاملShould ossicular reconstruction be staged following tympanomastoidectomy.
OBJECTIVES To determine whether ossicular reconstruction (OCR) performed concurrent with tympanomastoidectomy for cholesteatoma results in significantly different hearing results when compared to OCR performed in a separate, staged procedure. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective. MATERIALS AND METHODS Study subjects were patients undergoing OCR within a 2-year period. Intervention was OCR concurrent ...
