The purpose of this study was to examine the quality of life (QoL) and hearing thresholds of patients who underwent 2 types of stapes surgery. A retrospective cohort study was performed comparing stapedotomy with NiTiBOND prostheses (n=20) and stapedectomy with autogenous cortical bone columella (n=20), applying the Glasgow Benefit Inventory (GBI) and the Hearing Handicap Inventory for Adults outcome measures with hearing thresholds. Univariate comparative statistical methods were applied. The stapedotomy cohort had significantly better values of Social Support Score of the GBI as compared to the stapedectomy cohort (P=.016). No statistically significant difference was detected between the groups in the pre- and postoperative audiological results and the further QoL measures. Apart from the excellent postoperative audiological results of the different types of stapes surgeries, stapedotomy with NiTiBOND prostheses seems to be superior as regards QoL over stapedectomy applying autogenous cortical bone columella.
本研究旨在探讨两种镫骨手术患者的生活质量（QoL）和听力阈值。通过回顾性队列研究比较了应用 NiTiBOND 假体的镫骨切开术（n=20）和应用自体皮质骨柱的镫骨切除术（n=20），应用格拉斯哥获益量表（GBI）和成人听力障碍问卷（HHI）进行听力阈值测量。采用单变量比较统计方法。与镫骨切除术组相比，镫骨切开术组的 GBI 社会支持评分明显更好（P=.016）。两组在术前和术后的听力结果以及进一步的 QoL 测量方面均无统计学差异。除了不同类型的镫骨手术的出色术后听力结果外，应用 NiTiBOND 假体的镫骨切开术在 QoL 方面似乎优于应用自体皮质骨柱的镫骨切除术。
