Ossiculoplasty prosthesis (PORP/TORP)
Titanium or hydroxyapatite implant that partially (PORP, when the stapes superstructure is intact) or totally (TORP, bridging to the footplate) reconstructs a damaged ossicular chain.
How it is used
Ossicular chain reconstruction after chronic otitis media, cholesteatoma, or trauma, distinct from the already-catalogued stapedotomy prosthesis (specific to otosclerosis).
