Revision Stapes Surgery: A Critical Evaluation

Abstract: Fifty-six revision stapes surgeries performed during the last 9 years were evaluated retrospectively for their preoperative symptoms, intraoperative findings, and postoperative results according to the causes of failure, at the Gruppo Otologico, Piacenza, Italy. The most frequent causes of failure were found to be prosthetic misalignments, a reaction to the surgical trauma in the form of excess fibrous tissue reaction or new bony regrowth at the oval window, and ossicular chain problems. The location of the pa… Show more

“…Sensorineural hearing loss due to inner ear trauma is more likely to occur during revision surgery. In experienced hands, successful results (postoperative air‐bone gap closure to within 10 dB) have been reported in 18% to 80% of cases, with a mean of approximately 50% in most series 1‐20 . In the same series, the postoperative sensorineural hearing loss (a drop in bone conduction threshold more than 10 dB) was found in the range of 0% to 20% of cases.…”

“…Os exames audiométricos 8,9,11,18 realizados no pré-operatório foram a audiometria tonal e vocal, a imitanciometria e o SRT, sendo esses exames repetidos no pós-operatório para sabermos da existência de ganho auditivo ou não 10,11 . Durante algumas revisões de estapedectomia usamos os diapasões em 512Hz e 1024Hz após o ato cirúrgico, para sabermos se a prótese estava no lugar, com conseqüente presença de boa audição do paciente.…”

“…Nessas revisões não usamos o laser [12][13][14][15][16] e mantivemos a técnica tradicional da cirurgia 1,2,[17][18][19][20] , com o emprego de ganchos especializados, usando raramente brocas afiadas para a abertura da base do estribo. A prótese empregada nas revisões foi na grande maioria a de teflon de 0,6mm ou 0,4mm de espessura e também em alguns casos a prótese de aço e teflon.…”
