Research Abstract |
Ossicular tension is an important factor in the acoustic performance of incus and incus-stapes replacement prostheses; length is the primary determinant of postinsertion tension in conventional, rigid prostheses. The purpose of this study was to determine whether a self-djusting prostheses containing a silicon sponge. The silicon sponge seems to decrease the effect of changes in prosthesis length between the malleus and stapes at low frequencies.
