ABSTRACT
A retrospective study of 613 operations on 495 patients with otosclerosis was made in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology of Hospital General Universitario of Alicante between 1974 to 1992. The clinical-pathological characteristics of this series were studied. Statistical analysis of the results was made. The improvement in air-bone gap for conversational frequencies was 27 dB. Closure of the postoperative air-bone gap for conversational frequencies was 7.6 dB and the overall percentage of closure of this gap was 80.5%. Better auditory results were obtained with partial platinectomy than with stapedectomy. Nothing was inserted between the prosthesis and the vestibule, permitting a shorter, easier operation with no occurrence of perilympathic fistule.
