    Extractions: by Mark J. Levenson, MD, FACS Otosclerosis the immobilization of the stapes bone occurs slowly. Perception of hearing loss is so slow that many people with otosclerosis only become aware of their hearing loss when friends or relatives call it to their attention. Many individuals with otosclerosis compensate for their hearing loss by inadvertantly learning to read lips. Sometimes, the lip reading is conscious; at other times the person may be unaware of it. Hearing loss in otosclerosis may be in one, or both ears. When the hearing loss is in both ears, its effects on daily communication are significant. The first sign of a hearing loss can occur when a person finds themself requesting that others repeat themselves, or noting hearing difficulty when people's faces are turned away. Noises in the ear usually accompany otosclerosis. The sensation of background noises in the ear, even in the quiet, is called, tinnitus. In otosclerosis, tinnitus may be a broad band hissing sound, discreet tones or pulses. Also, the nerve of hearing is sometimes effected by otosclerosis. The tinnitus may be worse in this case. Tinnitus will go away in about half the cases of otosclerosis, when treated surgically. It is uncommon for the tinnitus to worsen after surgery.

    Extractions: Stapedectomy for Otosclerosis Otosclerosis is a disease of ear bone degeneration that most commonly develops during the teen or early adult years. In otosclerosis, the consistency of the sound-conducting bones of the ear changes from hard, mineralized bone to spongy, immature bone tissue. This can result in a buildup of inappropriate bone around the stapes foot-plate (a bone in the middle ear). This buildup of bone causes the stapes to become fixed and prevents it from vibrating normally. The lack of vibration prevents sound from being conducted to the inner, leading to a conductive hearing loss. How is Stapedectomy Performed? Stapedectomy is a surgical treatment for otosclerosis. In stapedectomy, the immobilized stapes is removed, and a tiny platinum or stainless steel prosthesis is inserted in the middle ear to replace it. The artificial prosthesis is less than 1/8 of an inch long. There are variations in stapedectomy depending on the extent of the disease. More extensive damage may require removal of the entire stapes footplate, while a small focus of disease allows for removal of less tissue. In patients with very extensive thickened tissue covering the oval window (obliterative otosclerosis), stapedectomy can not be performed. In such cases the stapes suprastructure is removed and the surgeon uses a small drill to thin out the oval window. An opening is made in the footplate, and the prosthesis is then positioned.

    Extractions: Category : Health Centers Ears and Hearing Disorders Otosclerosis Alternate Names : Otospongiosis Pictures and Images Attribution Otosclerosis involves the formation of new bone that affects two structures within the ear, known as the cochlea and labyrinth. The cochlea is a cone-shaped tube involved in hearing, and the labyrinth is key to a person's sense of balance. What is going on in the body? When new bone forms over the inner ear structures, it can prevent the bones from vibrating normally. The bones are no longer able to transmit sound waves to the cochlea, and hearing is impaired . If the labyrinth is affected, the person's sense of balance can be impaired as well. What are the causes and risks of the condition?

    Extractions: Background Normal Ear Function Type of Hearing Impairment Hearing Impairment from Otosclerosis ... General Comments Otosclerosis is a common cause of hearing impairment and is hereditary. About 10% of adults have otosclerosis, but in only about 10% of these (or 1% of the adult population) does the otosclerosis involve the stapes (stirrup) bone where it can be detected by its interference with hearing. When otosclerosis is present in other places in the middle ear, it causes no symptoms. The disorder can be passed down from one generation to another, perhaps not manifesting itself for several generations. Since the condition is hereditary, diseases such as scarlet fever, ear infections, measles, and influenza have no relationship to its development. Top The ear is divided into three parts: the external ear , the middle ear , and the inner ear . The external ear collects sound, the middle ear increases the sound pressure and transmits the sound to the inner ear which transforms the sound into nerve impulses. Sound waves normally pass through the ear canal and cause the ear drum to vibrate. Movements of this membrane are transmitted to the inner ear by three small bones: the malleus (hammer), the incus (anvil), and the stapes (stirrup). In the inner ear, the vibrations stimulate hair cells. These hair cells transform the vibrations into electrical impulses that are carried by the hearing nerve to the brain where they are interpreted as sound.
