Abstract:
The principles of osseointegration defined by Branemark are reviewed. The authors describe the otological applications of titanium implants: bone anchored hearing aids (BAHA). The good results obtained depend on the selection of the patients and the observance of a rigorous surgical technique. The present paper summarizes our results with 32 BAHA implanted in 27 patients.
