Stapedectomy is a type of surgery for an ear that is majorly performed for treating otosclerosis-related hearing loss. The buildup of the bone of the condition helps keep the stapes from moving and results in the conductive loss of hearing. 

The surgery is performed by ENT experts to add an artificial part in the place of the stapes. This surgery ensures the sound transmits from your eardrum to your inner ear. 

Stapedectomy Surgery Procedure 

The surgery is performed under local or general anaesthesia. This helps relax your muscles, prevents pain, and puts you to sleep during the procedure. No external incisions will be required, and the surgeon will perform the procedure through the ear canal to access the middle ear. The following are the steps of the stapedectomy procedure:

• Your surgeon will use an operating microscope to make an incision in your ear canal. 
• Next, the surgeon will remove the part of your stape placed near the other middle ear bones using a drill or laser. He will make a tiny hole in the area of the stapes close to your inner ear. 
• Your surgeon will place one end of a metal cylinder or tiny plastic in the hole, attaching the end closet to your middle ear bone. The surgeon uses a piston that works like a moveable link between the inner ear and the other middle ear bones. 
• Sound waves lead to vibration in your eardrum that moves the piston and the middle ear bones. 
• At last, your surgeon will return your eardrum to its normal position and hold it in place and cover it till the recovery period.
