Abstract:
This study was based on a detailed review of 503 cases of otosclerosis that were operated upon by me from 1961 to 1968. The vicissitudes of anesthesia, disequilibrium, dead ears and unexpected emotional abberations as well as legal and technical problems are discussed. Stapedectomy has been one of the most rewarding and technically challenging procedures that has come along in my career so far in medicine.
