    Residency training for stapedectomy (surgical procedure on the stapes bone in the ear) needs evaluation due to declining procedure numbers. This study reviews 5 years of resident-performed stapedectomies to suggest improvements.

    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Surgical Education

    Background:

    • The number of stapedectomy procedures has decreased.
    • Evaluating the adequacy of otolaryngology residency training for stapedectomy is crucial.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the outcomes of stapedectomies performed by residents.
    • To compare resident outcomes with published data.
    • To propose enhancements for the residency teaching program.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of stapedectomy cases.
    • Data collected from the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary otology service.
    • Analysis of 5 years of surgical results (Oct 1, 1979 - Sept 30, 1984).

    Main Results:

    • Outcomes of resident-performed stapedectomies were analyzed.

  • Results were compared to existing literature.
  • Areas for curriculum improvement were identified.

    • Conclusions:

    • The study provides insights into the effectiveness of residency training for stapedectomy.
    • Recommendations are made to enhance the surgical education program for future otologists.
    • Ensuring adequate training in stapedectomy is vital despite declining procedure volumes.
