Long-Term Results of Bone Cement in Stapes Surgery

Surgical technique; It involves separating the sclerosed stapes from the oval window and incus under an endoscope or microscope and replacing it with a Teflon piston, which is a middle ear prosthesis. In this way, a new connection between the incus and the oval window ensures the transmission of sound to the inner ear. Bone cement has long been used in primary and revision ossiculoplasty, including stapedotomy of the middle ear. During stapedotomy, the part of the Teflon piston that places the teflon piston on the incus is fixed with bone cement, aiming to keep the prosthesis in place for a long time and prophylactic treatment of incus necrosis.
