Stapedectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the stapes, one of the three small bones in the middle ear. The stapes is responsible for transmitting sound vibrations from the eardrum to the inner ear. Stapedectomy is typically performed to treat otosclerosis, a condition that causes the stapes to become fixed and unable to move properly.
Stapedectomy is considered a low-risk procedure, but all surgeries carry some risks, such as bleeding, infection, and allergic reaction. Other potential risks of stapedectomy include damage to the facial nerve, which can cause weakness or paralysis in the face, and hearing loss.
Stapedectomy is usually carried out on an outpatient basis. Patients go home the same day as surgery.
Patients should avoid smoking and drinking alcohol in the weeks leading up to stapedectomy. They should also eat a healthy diet and exercise regularly. The average recovery time for stapedectomy is two to four weeks. During this time, patients will need to avoid strenuous activity and protect their ears from water.
Stapedectomy is widely performed and well-respected in Mexico. Mexican surgeons are highly skilled and experienced in stapedectomy, and the country has access to the latest medical technology.
