Surgical 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 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 کاملEffect 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 کاملComparison of Titanium vs. Polycel Total Ossicular Replacement Prosthesis
Introduction: Even though modern technology progresses so rapidly, annals of otology are replete with so many challenging article, which often compare various types of prosthesis. Since there has not been a prospective randomized clinical trial study which compares the hearing result of total ossicular replacement prosthesis made of Titanium with omega connector and Polycel in the literature, w...
