Abstract

Objective: describe the experience of stapedotomy patients at the Hospital Universitario
Clínica San Rafael in the years 2018 and 2019. Material and method: descriptive
study in which a total of 32 medical records of patients undergoing stapedotomy between
2018 and 2019 at the Hospital Universitario Clínica San Rafael were reviewed.
Results: between 2018 and 2019, 32 stapedotomies were registered, 62% female,
with a mean age of 48.1 years, 54.9% in right ear; 84.3 % with transcanal approach,
78.1% Clip-piston prostheses were used, in 46.8 % 4.75 mm prostheses were used;
69.7 % presented moderate preoperative hearing loss, 6 patients presented vertigo,
only 1 patient presented a gusher complication and 1 tympanic perforation. 100 %
of the patients had a satisfactory air-bone gap closure. Conclusion: stapedotomy is
a successful procedure performed at the Hospital Universitario Clínica San Rafael
during 2018 and 2019, considering the excellent postoperative auditory results given
by the air-bone gap closure.
