title: [The evaluation of results of the surgical treatment in patients with otosclerosis].
abstract: The authors presents hearing results in 216 patients with otosclerosis surgical treated. Averaged cochlear reserve in relation to the bone conduction determined before operation was used in this study. The follow-up was 2 months-10 years. Good results was proved in more than 93%, no change in 5% and deterioration in less than 2%. The cochlear reserve up to 10 dB obtained in 59% of all patients. The cases when no changes (and deterioration) after surgical treatment correlated to large anomaly evolution in the structure of the hole drum and extensive focus with otosclerosis.
