Abstract: Objective

To explore the short-term effects of artificial titanium ossicles in stage I mastoidectomy and tympanoplasty.

Methods

From January 2013 to June 2017, 80 patients (81 ears) who underwent stage I mastoidectomy and tympanoplasty with artificial titanium ossicles were divided in two groups: the canal wall-up tympanoplasty and stage I ossicular implantation group (CWUT; 31 ears) and the canal wall-down tympanoplasty and stage I ossicular implantation group (CWDT; 50 ears). The short-term curative effects of artificial titanium ossicular implantation in these groups were observed and compared.

Results

The average postoperative air-bone gaps (ABG) in CWUT was 18.65±9.46 dB, and the success rate of hearing reconstruction was 83.87%. The average postoperative air-bone gaps (ABG) in CWDT was 19.90±9.42 dB, and the success rate of hearing reconstruction was 62.00%. There were significant differences in the mean values of air and air-bone gaps (ABG) between the groups before and after the operation (P < 0.05). The success rates of postoperative hearing reconstruction between the groups were statistically significant (P < 0.05).

Conclusion

The implantation of artificial titanium auditory ossicles in both CWUT and CWDT improve hearing.

Key words: Tympanoplasty, Artificial titanium ossicle, Air-bone gap
