15 Surgical Pearls Surgical Approach Confirm Diagnosis i Stapedotomy Piston Placement Post-op op Care
16 Surgical Approach Elevate Flap to Notch of Rivinus Less likely to tear Use combination of small diamond burr (2mm) and bone curette to remove scutum Helps protect Chorda - use saline soaked Gelfoam Remove enough Scutum to expose: Facial Nerve Pyramidal Eminence Pyramidal Eminence Stapes
17 Confirm Diagnosis Palpate Malleus, Incus, and Stapes Use the same instrument to palpate the malleus from the underside in every surgery While palpating p the incus, note the correct location of the IS joint Once the IS joint has been separated, palpate p the Malleus again Fixation does not preclude a stapes procedure, but may need total ossiculoplasty in the future
18 Measure first Stapedotomy Most patients 4mm, add.25mm Laser preferred Microdrill for Obliterative Otosclerosis Stapedotomy on posterior 1/3 of footplate If stapedectomy, create a control hole first Use 24 Suction Do not cover the hole Do not suction the vestibule
19 Piston Placement Confirm that piston is secured to the incus Confirm that t piston is within the stapedotomy t Place small piece of fat around the stapedotomy Fat graft from ear lobe at start of procedure
20 Post-op Care Check Tuning Fork in the Recovery Room Weber should lateralize to operated ear Check for Nystagmus Packing Removal in One Week Audiogram on Day of Packing Removal Role of Steroids Prednisone 60mg daily for 2 weeks
21 Chorda Tympani Complications: Intra-op Damage to both can result in dry mouth syndrome and permanent taste alteration Floating Footplate: Abort or Proceed? Do not retrieve if fragments displaced into vestibule Total stapedectomy if able to remove fragments, then use a graft (vein, fat, or fascia 1 ) Gusher CSF Leak Use a tissue graft, may proceed with placement of prosthesis, consider lumbar drain 1.
