Hearing outcomes of Incus-Interposition versus Titanium-partial ossicular replacement prostheses – Our experience in 115 Patients

Abstract

Both, PORP and incus interpositions, are valuable techniques for the reconstruction of the conductive mechanism.

In our study we were able to show that, in certain aspects, the audiological outcome was better in incus remodelling reconstruction than in PORP placement.

A detailed analysis of all frequencies showed significantly better results in the incus group especially for the frequencies 250Hz, 1000Hz, 2000Hz and 3000Hz.

If clinical conditions warrant it, a reconstruction of the ossicular chain with incus interposition may be preferred to PORP.

Unexpectedly, no significant correlation between age and outcome for both groups was noted. Hence age is not to be considered as a limiting factor for partial ossicular reconstruction.
