Sažetak
INTRODUCTION/OBJECTIVES: Stapes surgery is generally performed for otosclerosis and there are numerous surgical technicques and prosthesis materials available. Constant evaluation of postoperative hearing outcomes is crucial for identification and further advancement of the current best option. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study is a retrospective analysis of the hearing treshold levels before and after stapedectomy/stapedotomy in 365 patients during a ten year period. The patients were classified in three groups depending on the prosthesis and surgery type (stapedectomy with Schucknecht’s prosthesis placement and stapedotomy with either Causse’s or Richard’s prosthesis). The postoperative ABG was calculated by subtracting the BC PTA from the AC PTA. RESULTS: The hearing treshold levels were evaluated preoperatively and postoperatively using pure-tone audiogram with frequency range from 250 Hz to 12 kHz. The results show the air-bone gap reduction to CONCLUSION: The results were similar using the three observed options. The choice on the surgery type and prosthesis material shoud be made individually for each patient and the surgeon must be competent for using different surgical approaches in order to achieve the best results.
