    A novel ossicle-cup prosthesis improves hearing after incus replacement. This innovative device achieved significant air-bone gap closure in preliminary studies, enhancing outcomes for hearing restoration surgery.

    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Hearing Restoration

    Background:

    • Incus replacement surgery is crucial for hearing restoration.
    • Existing prostheses may have limitations in achieving optimal joint dynamics and height adjustment.
    • A need exists for improved prostheses to enhance post-operative hearing outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and evaluate a novel ossicle-cup prosthesis for incus replacement.
    • To assess the efficacy of this prosthesis in improving hearing after surgery.
    • To analyze the joint mechanics and height variability of the new prosthesis.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of the ossicle-cup prosthesis, integrating a Teflon Robinson's stapes prosthesis into an incus body.
    • Surgical implantation in 45 cases.

  • Evaluation of preliminary hearing results, focusing on air-bone gap closure.

    • Main Results:

    • The ossicle-cup prosthesis demonstrated a dynamic joint with the stapes capitulum.
    • Variable height adjustment above the stapes was incorporated.
    • Preliminary results showed 67% of cases achieved air-bone gap closure within 10 dB.
    • 98% of cases achieved air-bone gap closure within 20 dB.

    Conclusions:

    • The ossicle-cup prosthesis is a promising innovation for incus replacement surgery.
    • The prosthesis design facilitates improved joint dynamics and functional adaptation.
    • Significant improvements in air-bone gap closure suggest enhanced hearing outcomes.
