Results Of Surgery

SummaryBilateral stapedectomy was performed in 122 cases of bilateral otosclerosis at Ulleval Hospital between 1960 and 1978. Ninety-six patients (192 ears), or 79 per cent, were re-examined in 1980. The long-term results showed that the air/bone gap was closed to within 10 db. in 142 ears (74 per cent). Twenty-four patients (25 per cent) used a hearing aid at the time of the examination, mainly because of presbyacusis.Deafness or serious sensori-neural loss ascribed to the operation was found in 21 ears (11 per cent). Immediate deafness occurred in three ears (1.5 per cent), and in seven ears (3.7 percent) the patient became deaf later. Eleven ears (5.8 per cent) had marked sensori-neural losses, but with some speech comprehension. None of the patients had bilateral deafness, but one patient was deaf in one ear, with a sensori-neural loss of 80 db. in the other.Eleven patients (13 ears) who had undergone previous stapediolysis or crurotomy, were treated as a separate group, and their results were compared with those obtained in the other patients.We have also tried to find out if there is any difference between the long-term results of surgery in the first and in the second ear.

Graft Necrosis

Paediatric revision myringoplasty has received little attention. This study addressed the issue exclusively and reviewed the short- and long-term results of surgery in children between the ages of five and 15. Twenty-six out of 38 operated ears (68.4 per cent) were initially intact. The causes of immediate failure in decreasing order were: infection with graft necrosis, complete no-take of the graft and poor anterior adaptation of the graft. Age, size and site of perforation and surgeon’s experience did not significantly affect the initial outcome of surgery. Six ears developed delayed re-perforations, thus decreasing the overall success rate to 52.6 per cent. The latter were attributable to either episodes of acute otitis media or to insidious atrophy of the tympanic membrane. Notably, none developed post-operative sensorineural hearing loss. It is concluded that the results of paediatric revision myringoplasty are rather disappointing, yet arguments encouraging its practice are favourably presented.
