It is removal of parts of the middle ear and insertion of prosthesis parts

Nothing HAPPENS! They can intersect in a point or a line.
Nothing happens if a number is divided by a zero.
yes * * * * * No! A rectangle rotates into itself at kπ radians where k is an integer - ie half a turn and its multiples.
Nothing extraordinary happens. You are just a child of a parent.
To restore hearing loss, which is usually due to otosclerosis, stapedectomy is performed
A stapedectomy is used to treat progressive hearing loss caused by otosclerosis, a condition in which spongy bone hardens around the base of the stapes.
Harold Frederich Schuknecht has written: 'Stapedectomy' -- subject(s): Stapedectomy 'Pathology of the ear' -- subject(s): Diseases, Ear
Stapedectomy is a surgical procedure in which the innermost bone (stapes) of the three bones.of the middle ear is removed, and replaced with a small plastic tube of stainless-steel wire (a prosthesis) to improve the movement of sound to the inner ear.
The most serious risk is an increased hearing loss, which occurs in about 1% of patients. Because of this risk, a stapedectomy is usually performed on only one ear at a time.
It is performed in a hospital or outpatient surgical facility under local or general anesthetic
Full recovery takes about three weeks but hearing should improve immediately
Stapedectomy
Yes it is! I had a stapedectomy which was successful for 4 days. I did exactely what my doctor told me to do but on the 5th day after the operation, I experienced complete hearing loss again. The doctor said that it was possible for the prosthesis to have slipped from the bone and will require a second operation to refit it.
Yes-I have horrible ringing and pressure--it constantly feels as if I am in an airplane.
A stapedectomy is a surgical procedure performed to treat hearing loss caused by otosclerosis, a condition where the stapes bone in the middle ear becomes fixed. The procedure involves removing the fixed stapes bone and replacing it with a prosthetic device to improve hearing.
The surgical procedure of removing an ear bone is known as a stapedectomy. This procedure is typically performed to treat hearing loss caused by otosclerosis, a condition where the stapes bone in the middle ear becomes fixed and unable to transmit sound vibrations. During a stapedectomy, the surgeon removes the fixed stapes bone and replaces it with a prosthetic device to restore hearing.
