Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the surgical outcomes of endoscopic stapedectomy, comparing the results with a conventional stapes surgery under microscopic approach. Patients and Methods: This study was carried out in Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery department of both Benha University Hospitals and Hearing & Speech Institute upon 30 patients divided into two groups, each consists of 15 patients, Group A underwent endoscopic stapedectomy, Group B underwent microscopic stapedectomy from June 2019 till March 2020 to evaluate the advantages of endoscopic stapedectomy in comparison to microscopic one. Results:We reported that 14 patients (93.3%) of the endoscopic group showed improvement in hearing, while only one patient (6.7%) complained of recurrent hearing impairment at the 6th month follow up after lifting heavy object while hearing was very good at 1st, and 3rd months follow up. All patients (100%) of the microscopic group showed improvement in hearing at 1st, 3rd and 6th months post-operative with nearly closed ABG. Conclusion: Endoscopic surgery is particularly suitable for stapedial disease. Endoscopic stapes surgery can be performed despite a curved and narrow external auditory canal and is minimally invasive, being characterized by little drilling and almost no postoperative pain.
