The aim of this study is to value the hearing results obtained in our department following stapedectomy and the reasons of primary failures.We present a retrospective study of 95 stapedectomies in 82 patients, performed from January 1997 to September 2002 at Hospital Xeral-Cies of Vigo (Pontevedra).Medium presurgical audiometric threshold was 65.71 and postsurgical 26.68. Good results were obtained in 84.21% of cases (air-bone gap closure difference under 20 dB), 10.52% had not change in air threshold and the rest deteriorated.We compare our results with other authors and we consider that stapedectomy is a safe surgical technique, but it has important complications and they have to be bear in mind to prevent them. |
