    Abstract:
    In order to prevent complications which occur in classical stapedoplasty, authors applied a new atraumatic procedure in 138 patients with otosclerosis. Along with preserved ossicular chain, stapedotomy was performed and a piston-wire prosthesis placed. Disarticulation of incudostapedial joint was the next part of the procedure with removal of suprastructure of the stapes. Early and late cochlear disorders were rare while the final functional effects were much better. This paper analyzes numerous advantages of this procedure with directives for promotion of our work in the future.
