A 12-year-old boy presented with long-term left-sided conductive hearing loss, and was found to have mallear fixation and a dehiscent facial nerve on a computed tomographic (CT) scan of the temporal bone. Release of the malleus was performed at surgery, revealing hypermobility of the remaining ossicular chain. A repeat CT scan of the temporal bone showed successful release of the mallear head. The patient's father later presented with bilateral hearing loss, and a CT scan of the temporal bones showed bilateral osseous fixation of the mallear head to the tegmen and bilateral facial nerve dehiscences. He underwent right middle ear exploration, but release of the malleus was not performed because of the risk to the dehiscent facial nerve. The stapes crurae were found to be filiform at surgery. This is the first reported familial association of mallear fixation. Mallear fixation with facial nerve dehiscence and an abnormal stapes occurring in a parent and his child is interesting embryologically, and suggests that these anomalies may be genetically linked.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/000348941011900508","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,5,30]],"date-time":"2017-05-30T05:07:54Z","timestamp":1496120874000},"page":"319-324","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Congenital Familial Fixation of the Malleus"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"119","author":[{"given":"Mia E.","family":"Miller","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Head and Neck Surgery, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, Los Angeles, California"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Claudia","family":"Kirsch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, The Ohio State University College of Medicine, Columbus, Ohio"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rinaldo F.","family":"Canalis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Head and Neck Surgery, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, Los Angeles, California"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,5,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1288\/00005537-198108000-00012"},{"key":"bibr2-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/00016487009181864"},{"key":"bibr3-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/000348940211100309"},{"key":"bibr4-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2273.1981.tb01784.x"},{"key":"bibr5-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1288\/00005537-196105000-00003"},{"key":"bibr6-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/00016486209126959"},{"key":"bibr7-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00188380"},{"key":"bibr8-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00129492-200211000-00008"},{"key":"bibr9-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/00016480500390345"},{"key":"bibr10-000348941011900508","first-page":"1229","volume":"19","author":"Kurosaki Y.","year":"1998","journal-title":"AJNR Am J Neuroradiol"},{"key":"bibr11-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archotol.1967.00760040621008"},{"key":"bibr12-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archotol.1978.00790070026006"},{"key":"bibr13-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1288\/00005537-197108000-00013"},{"key":"bibr14-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1288\/00005537-197608000-00012"},{"key":"bibr15-000348941011900508","first-page":"787","volume":"60","author":"House H.P.","year":"1956","journal-title":"Trans Am Acad Ophthalmol Otolaryngol"},{"key":"bibr16-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archotol.1967.00760040179008"},{"key":"bibr17-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/00016486309127421"},{"key":"bibr18-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archotol.1963.00750020532013"},{"key":"bibr19-000348941011900508","first-page":"370","volume":"70","author":"Goodhill V.","year":"1966","journal-title":"Trans Am Acad Ophthalmol Otolaryngol"},{"key":"bibr20-000348941011900508","first-page":"717","volume":"20","author":"Vincent R.","year":"1999","journal-title":"Am J Otol"},{"key":"bibr21-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0385-8146(01)00125-0"},{"key":"bibr22-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MAO.0b013e31803261a0"},{"key":"bibr23-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0030-6665(02)00054-3"},{"key":"bibr24-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/hmg\/ddm356"},{"key":"bibr25-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00129492-200103000-00030"},{"key":"bibr26-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00129492-200409000-00004"},{"key":"bibr27-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/hn.1999.v120.a89626"},{"key":"bibr28-000348941011900508","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00129492-200205000-00009"}],"container-title":["Annals of Otology, Rhinology &amp;
