title: [Stapedoplasty in a HIV-infected patient].
abstract: This paper reports an observation illustrating the possibility of the successful surgical treatment of otosclerosis in a HIV-infected patient presenting with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and positive response in the test for hepatitis C.
