The effects of the self\u2010crimping Nitinol piston on the postoperative ABGC, the postoperative interindividual air\u2010bone gap (ABG) variations, and the postoperative hearing results were investigated 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months postoperatively. These data were statistically compared with the results of the control patients in our titanium stapes piston database and the results of our previously published pilot study.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold> The mean postoperative ABG and the interindividual variations of the postoperative ABG continue to be significantly smaller in the Nitinol group; the extent of ABGC now is significantly larger in the Nitinol piston group. The postoperative mid\u2010term stability of ABGC was similar in both groups. No adverse reactions occurred during follow\u2010up.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion:<\/jats:bold> Our mid\u2010term results continue to show that the self\u2010crimping shape memory alloy Nitinol stapes piston overcomes the limitations of manual malcrimping in stapedotomy, thus simplifying and optimizing the surgical procedure. This so far has allowed reliable, safe, and consistent ABGC in patients with otosclerosis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1097\/mlg.0b013e31805c9a5c","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,6,22]],"date-time":"2007-06-22T08:04:59Z","timestamp":1182499499000},"page":"1236-1239","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":31,"title":["Eliminating the Limitations of Manual Crimping in Stapes Surgery: Mid\u2010Term Results of 90 Patients in the Nitinol Stapes Piston Multicenter Trial"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"117","author":[{"given":"Gunesh P.","family":"Rajan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jason","family":"Diaz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ruth","family":"Blackham","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Robert H.","family":"Eikelboom","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marcus D.","family":"Atlas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Clough","family":"Shelton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alexander M.","family":"Huber","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2009,1,2]]},"reference":[{"issue":"5","key":"e_1_2_6_2_2","first-page":"S2","article-title":"A personal history of stapedectomy","volume":"19","author":"Shea JJ","year":"1998","journal-title":"Am J Otol"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/000348948109000626"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1288\/00005537-199111000-00003"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_2","first-page":"112","article-title":"Stapedotomy versus stapedectomy","volume":"4","author":"Fisch U","year":"1982","journal-title":"Am J Otol"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0194-59989570067-6"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"548","DOI":"10.1097\/00129492-200307000-00004","article-title":"Biomechanics of stapesplasty: a review","volume":"24","author":"Huttenbrink KB","journal-title":"Otol Neurotol"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1288\/00005537-198109000-00011"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/000348946707600305"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/00016489709117785"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005537-200305000-00015"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.mlg.0000154747.63561.52"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/(SICI)1097-4636(199824)43:4<433::AID-JBM11>3.0.CO;2-#"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/010503900750042752"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.mlg.0000172274.73365.11"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0385-8146(96)00026-0"}],"container-title":["The Laryngoscope"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1097%2FMLG.0b013e31805c9a5c","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1097\/MLG.0b013e31805c9a5c","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,15]],"date-time":"2023-11-15T01:31:58Z","timestamp":1700011918000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1097\/MLG.0b013e31805c9a5c"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2007,7]]},"references-count":15,"journal-issue":{"issue":"7","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2007,7]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1097\/MLG.0b013e31805c9a5c"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/mlg.0b013e31805c9a5c","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0023-852X","1531-4995"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0023-852X","type":"print"},{"value":"1531-4995","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2007,7]]}}}
