  • Title: An unusual case of stapes fixation.
    Author: Kluyskens P, Mussche RA.
    Journal: Acta Otorhinolaryngol Belg; 1979; 33(6):922-6. PubMed ID: 554423.
    Abstract:
    A case of fixed columella stapes is described by a patient of 39 years with bilateral conductive hearing loss, a mitral valve pathology, bat ears, clinodactyly and hallux valgus. This complex of anomalies can be considered a hazardous association or an incomplete form of the Forney-Robinson-Pascoe syndrome. Stapedectomy with interposition of a vein graft and a teflon piston gave a total closure of the air-bone gap.
