Manual of Middle Ear Surgery

In this book the best surgical solutions for conductive hearing loss due to ossicular fixations are thoroughly described and discussed.The first section covers thympanosclerosis, collating all knowledge on the pathogenesis and pathology of this obscure condition, as well as the surgical methods used in fixation of the ossicular chain, when caused by myringosclerosis and tympanosclerosis. The second section covers postinflammatory, posttraumatic, and postoperative bony fixations of the ossicular chain. In the third section, the voluminous topic of otosclerosis, in particular the evolution of stapes surgery, the various stapedectomy and stapedotomy methods, and the complications of surgery for otosclerosis, are covered in great detail. This section also includes the problems that are encountered in otosclerosis surgery when the ear has been affected with chronic otitis. In the fourth section, congenital ossicular fixations and defects are covered along with some new aspects on the classification and embryology of these problems.For all topics, there is in-depth discussion of the pathogenesis and pathology of the diseases in question. Excellent hand-drawn illustrations provide a level of detail and comprehension not attainable through photography.This book will cover tympanosclerotic, bony, and fibrous fixations, retractions, atelectasis, secretory and adhesive otitis, ventilation problems of the middle ear, cholesteatoma in the tympanic cavity and more!

Volume 4: Surgical Solutions for Conductive Hearing Loss

A superbly illustrated atlas of cartilage tympanoplasty methods
Written by a pioneering master in the field, Cartilage Tympanoplasty: Classification of Methods-Techniques-Results, is a comprehensive reference for all the currently used methods of cartilage tympanoplasty. In the opening chapters of the book, Mirko Tos provides a thorough overview of this class of procedures, including a classification of 23 original cartilage tympanoplasty methods. Each of the following chapters offers a detailed exposition of a different method, presenting its definition, indication, graft harvesting and shaping, surgical technique, and an analysis of the anatomical and functional results based on a review of the literature and on personal experience. In the closing chapters, the author discusses long-term outcomes and compares the results of the various cartilage tympanoplasty methods. 
"Mirko Tos has written a remarkable book...The entire community of otologic surgeons will benefit from this contribution."--From the foreword by John Dornhoffer, MD, FACS

Cartilage Tympanoplasty: Classification of Methods - Techniques - Results

With increasing numbers of reports on surgical and nonsurgical treatment of acoustic neuroma, standardization of reporting systems has become more and more important. For that purpose, the 11th Keio International Symposium for Life Sciences and Medicine, the Consensus Meeting on Systems for Reporting Results in Acoustic Neuroma, brought together researchers from Japan and other parts of the world. This volume is a compilation of papers from the symposium on standardization of evaluation and reporting systems for acoustic neuroma from such aspects as tumor size, facial nerve function, pre- and postoperative hearing, the effect of radiotherapy, and neurological symptoms. This unique book is a valuable reference for clinicians, researchers, and other professionals working in neurootology, neurosurgery, otolaryngology, audiology, and related fields.
