Long-term observations on ceramic ossicular replacement prosthesis (CORP). 1988

E Yamamoto
Department of Otolaryngology, Kobe City General Hospital, Japan.

Long-term observations on the ceramic ossicular replacement prosthesis (CORP) were performed. Extrusion rates were 8.3% for CORP-P and 5.2% for CORP-T, with most extrusions occurring within 2 years. Hearing results were satisfactory. Air-bone gaps at 1 year were within 10 dB in 44.8% with CORP-P and 31.2% with CORP-T. At 3 to 5 years, air-bone gaps were within 10 dB in 42.2% and 33.3%, respectively. It was found that the short-term results were maintained even for the long period. Unsatisfactory hearing gains were caused mainly by the displacement or extrusion of CORP which could be prevented by fixation with the cartilage plate, deepening of the base of CORP-P, fixing of the base of CORP-T with the fascia, and additional fixing with the malleus handle and chorda tympani nerve.
