    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Surgical Innovation

    Background:

    • Ossicular reconstruction addresses hearing loss due to middle ear pathologies.
    • Common surgical challenges include low stapes profile, lateral tympanic membrane, remaining stapes crura, and absent stapes capitulum.
    • Existing prostheses may not adequately address these specific anatomical variations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and evaluate novel semibiological ossicle prostheses.
    • To address specific challenges in ossicular reconstruction: low stapes profile, lateral tympanic membrane, remaining stapes crura, and absent stapes capitulum.
    • To demonstrate the efficacy of modified semibiological ossicle cup and columella prostheses.

    Main Methods:

    • Design and modification of semibiological ossicle cup prostheses.

  • Design and modification of semibiological ossicle columella prostheses.
  • Surgical implantation and audiological assessment of patients.

    • Main Results:

    • The novel prostheses effectively address the identified anatomical challenges in ossicular reconstruction.
    • Hearing results following implantation were uniformly satisfactory.
    • The design modifications facilitate improved surgical outcomes.

    Conclusions:

    • Semibiological ossicle prostheses, with specific design modifications, provide a viable solution for complex ossicular reconstruction cases.
    • These prostheses offer satisfactory hearing restoration.
    • Further investigation into long-term outcomes may be warranted.
