Otological Middle Ear Implant

Middle Ear Implants serve as replacements for damaged or redundant ossicles in Otoplasty. They reinstate the defect mechanical chain of sound transmission between the tympanum and the stapes footplate.

There are two basic types of middle ear implants:

  1. Total implants, or TORP (Total Ossicular Replacement Prosthesis) – total ossicular replacement; functional stapes footplate
  2. Partial implants, or PORP (Partial Ossicular Replacement Prosthesis) – partial ossicular replacement; stapes still present, stapes footplate functional
