چکیده انگلیسی
The patient was a 52-year-old woman. She had been aware of her bilateral hearing loss since she was 20 years old. The hearing in her left ear started to deteriorate at the age of 49. Pure-tone audiometry showed a bilateral mixed hearing loss. The hearing levels for the right ear and the left ear were 52Â dB and 68Â dB, respectively. There were no remarkable findings in a computed tomography (CT) scan of the temporal bone. We suspected that she had otosclerosis, and an operation was performed on her left ear. When the incudostapedial joint (I-S joint) was exposed to investigate the movement of the stapes, a soft white band that ran under the superstructure of the stapes was noted. By using a nerve monitoring system, we confirmed that the white band was the bare facial nerve. The ossicular chain was normal, except for a malformed stape due to the facial nerve, and the footplate of the stapes was fixed. Therefore, she was diagnosed as having otosclerosis with an abnormal facial nerve pathway. The malformed superstructure of the stapes was removed carefully. When the ectopic facial nerve was shifted to anteroinferior side, the oval window could be seen. Stapedotomy using a Teflon piston prosthesis was performed with no complications.
