Abstract


Stapedotomy is an effective treatment for conductive hearing loss associated with otosclerosis. However, the procedure, especially using the endoscopic technique requires extensive training and experience for optimal results. Due to limited training options in endoscopic stapes surgery, we aim to develop an ovine stapedotomy model and assess its feasibility for surgeons at different training levels.
