DOI: 10.1007/s00106-020-00984-0
Abstract: Patients with otosclerosis can suffer from different grades of combined hearing loss. In addition to surgery (stapedectomy), conventional hearing aids can be used in the treatment of otosclerosis. In cases of severe conductive components in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00405-018-5246-3
Abstract: PurposeThe thesis that cholesteatoma evolves from a retraction pocket is widely accepted today. Yet, its prime etiology, the question of what triggers the invagination of healthy skin, still remains unclear despite centuries of investigations into… read more here.

How flexibility and eardrum cone shape affect sound conduction in single-ossicle ears: a dynamic model study of the chicken middle ear
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Biomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology"
DOI: 10.1007/s10237-019-01207-4
Abstract: It is believed that non-mammals have poor hearing at high frequencies because the sound-conduction performance of their single-ossicle middle ears declines above a certain frequency. To better understand this behavior, a dynamic three-dimensional finite-element model… read more here.
