Abstract

Hearing results of 51 ears with tympnaosclerosis were reviewed. Postoperative air-bone gap was less than 10dB in 34 ears (66.7%) and less than 20dB in 46 ears (90.2%). There was no statistical difference in hearing results between type I and type III tympanoplasty. There was statistical difference in hearing results between the eras with and without tympanosclerosis of the stapes. In cases of stapes fixation, the ears with stapedectomy tended to have better hearing results than those without stapedectomy. But there were only 7 ears of tympanosclerosis of stapes, and the experince is needed to further discuss whether stapedectomy is useful or not.
