Author Spotlight: Advancing Endoscopic Ossiculoplasty – Techniques, Innovations, and Practical Guidance for Clinical Integration

In modern ontology, the use of endoscopes has evolved from diagnostics to exclusive endoscopic ear surgery. Our goal is to offer a comprehensive understanding of the various endoscopic osteoplasty techniques and support their integration into clinical practice. The focused illumination of specific middle ear structures, such as the stay piece and its foot plate allows great precision in prosthesis placement.

Furthermore, it facilitates the detection of both anatomical and pathological variances. The endoscopic technique is performed through the auditory canal and requires precise and delicate maneuvers as it's performed single-handedly. Before implementing this technique in the operating room, we strongly advise hands-on training.
