  • Title: Symposium: Methods of reconstruction in tympanoplasty. I. Management of fixation of malleolus head and incudal body in tympanoplasty.
    Author: Pennington CL.
    Journal: Laryngoscope; 1976 Feb; 86(2):173-8. PubMed ID: 1053354.
    Abstract:
    Depending upon the presence or absence of stapedial mobility, treatment of ossicular fixation will vary. Methods and indication to preserve the fixed malleolar head and neck are discussed and positive indications for removal of the incus are enumerated. A description of various surgical techniques of interposition of the incus between the mobile malleus and stapes to relieve stapes fixation and restore continuity are described in detail.
