¸ñÀû: Malleus-footplate assembly or long collumelization can be performed to reconstruct discontinued ossicular chain in patients having conductive hearing loss due to stapes supra-structure missing with mobile stapes footplate. Among these patients, incus-footplate assembly (IFA) was attempted in a very limited number of patients in which incus long process was preserved. In this study, authors reviewed surgical findings and analyzed hearing outcomes. ¹æ¹ý:Eight patients (4 male patients) who underwent IFA at Seoul National University Hospital and Seoul National University Bundang Hospital from 2005 to 2014 were included in this study. The patients¡¯ mean age was 29.3 years old (range, 11 - 61) and follow-up duration ranged from 12.1 to 60.1 months. Hearing improvements were evaluated by post-operative air-bon gap (ABG) and ABG closure (post-operative air conduction threshold – pre- operative bone conduction threshold). Causes of conductive hearing loss and intraoperative findings were reviewed. °á°ú:Causes of stapes supra-structure missing and conductive hearing loss were congenital ossicular anomaly (N=5), congenital cholesteatoma (N=1), and chronic otitis media (N=2). The mean pre-operative ABG and the mean postoperative ABG were 38.3 ¡¾ 4.8 dB and 13.3 ¡¾ 10.0 dB, respectively. The postoperative ABGs for each frequency, 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0 kHz, were 20.0 ¡¾15.4, 16.9 ¡¾ 11.9, 16.3 ¡¾ 10.3, 10.6 ¡¾ 7.3, 12.9 ¡¾ 14.0, 23.1 ¡¾ 16.2, respectively. The mean ABG closure was 9.5 dB (range, -1.3 – 35.8 ). The ¡®best results¡¯ (mean ABG closure < 10dB) were 7 cases. In the remaining one patient, mean ABG closure was 9.5 dB until 6 months after surgery, but was 35.8 dB at 1 year after surgery. The mean length of the prosthesis was designed to fit the distance between medial side of incus and stapes footplate (3.6 ¡¾ 0.5 mm). °á·Ð:IFA seems to be a reasonable surgical option in patients missing stapes supra-structure with intact footplate in which incus long process was preserved.
