What is Stapedotomy & Stapedectomy Surgery ?
Stapedectomy and stapedotomy surgery are advanced middle ear surgeries performed to improve hearing loss in patients with otosclerosis.
In Delhi, Otosclerosis is a problem in which your stapes bone becomes fixed and cannot transmit sound vibration normally to the inner ear.
Stapedectomy in Delhi is also called as ear stapedectomy, otosclerosis surgery, stapes surgery, hearing restoration surgery for conductive hearing loss.
During this surgery for hearing loss treatment, your ENT specialist in Delhi, like Dr. Purodha Prasad, will remove part or all of the diseased stapes bone.
It is replaced with tiny prosthesis, such as stapedectomy piston or Teflon piston. Before the surgery, your ENT specialist will perform detailed ear examination, hearing test with audiometry, and MRI imaging if required to confirm otosclerosis.
Benefits of Stapedectomy Surgery for Otosclerosis Treatment in Delhi
- Improves Hearing Ability: Stapedectomy surgery helps restore the transmission of sound from the middle ear to the inner ear, leading to significant improvement in hearing for many patients with otosclerosis.
- Reduces Conductive Hearing Loss: The procedure directly treats the fixed stapes bone responsible for hearing loss, helping patients hear sounds more clearly and comfortably in their day-to-day lives.
- May Reduce Dependence on Hearing Aids: For selected patients, successful stapedotomy surgery or stapedectomy surgery may reduce the need for hearing aids or improve their effectiveness after surgery.
- Treats the Root Cause of Otosclerosis: Unlike medications that cannot reverse stapes fixation, stapedectomy and stapedotomy surgery address the underlying mechanical problem in the middle ear responsible for conductive hearing loss.
The main difference between Stapedotomy & Stapedectomy is that, in stapedotomy surgery the ENT surgeon creates a very small opening in the stapes footplate and inserts a tiny prosthesis to restore sound transmission.
However, in a stapedectomy a larger portion or the entire stapes footplate is removed and replaced with a prosthesis

The cost of reverse stapedotomy in Delhi usually ranges between ₹1,00,000 and ₹3,00,000+.
Dr. Purodha Prasad determines the most suitable technique after detailed evaluation and chooses the approach that offers the best balance of safety, precision, and hearing restoration.

The audiologist has mentioned his 2 important remarks at end –
- ENT Review: An Ear, Nose, and Throat specialist needs to evaluate the structural changes in the left ear (the history of discharge, thick eardrum, and flat Type B tympanogram) to identify conditions such as otosclerosis and if medical treatment, clearing of fluid, or surgery can bridge that large air-bone gap and restore the conductive portion of the hearing.
- Aural Hygiene: Keeping the ear clean and completely dry (especially preventing water from entering during showers) to prevent further infections or discharge

The primary finding in this report is Bilateral Moderate Conductive Hearing Loss. This means that in both ears, the inner ear’s nerve pathways are healthy, but there is a mechanical barrier in the outer or middle ear preventing sound from traveling effectively.
- Right Ear (AC PTA: 53 dBHL): Moderate degree of hearing loss
- Left Ear (AC PTA: 41.6 dBHL): Moderate hearing loss category (slightly mild than Right ear)
The audiologist strongly recommends an ENT Review, Aural Hygiene at the bottom of the report.

FAQs on Stapes Surgery for Otosclerosis in Delhi by Dr. Purodha Prasad
Can I wear headphones after stapedectomy?
Yes, but only after complete healing and clearance from the ENT surgeon. Initially, patients should avoid pressure on the operated ear. Dr. Purodha Prasad recommends starting with low-volume, soft-use headphones and avoiding tight or in-ear pressure devices until full recovery is confirmed.
What are the restrictions after stapedectomy?
After surgery, patients are advised to avoid heavy lifting, sudden pressure changes, nose blowing, flying (for a short period), and strenuous activity. These precautions help protect healing structures inside the middle ear. Dr. Purodha Prasad explains that following post-operative instructions strictly improves hearing outcomes in stapedotomy surgery.
Can I have an MRI after a stapedectomy?
In most cases, MRI is possible after stapedectomy, but it depends on the type of prosthesis used (such as Teflon piston or titanium piston stapedectomy). Modern implants are generally MRI-compatible, but it is essential to inform the radiologist and ENT surgeon beforehand. Dr. Purodha Prasad emphasizes checking implant details before any MRI scan.
How to wash your hair after stapedectomy?
Hair washing should be done carefully to prevent water entry into the operated ear. Patients are usually advised to keep the ear dry for a few days to weeks depending on healing. Dr. Purodha Prasad advises using protective ear covering during bathing and avoiding direct water pressure on the ear until clearance is given.
Can a stapedectomy be done twice?
Yes, a revision stapedectomy or revision stapedotomy can be performed if hearing deteriorates again due to prosthesis displacement, scar tissue formation, or recurrent otosclerosis. These cases are more complex and require detailed evaluation. Dr. Purodha Prasad says revision surgery is only recommended after thorough audiological and clinical assessment.
Does a stapedectomy last a lifetime?
In many patients, stapedectomy or stapedotomy surgery provides long-lasting hearing improvement, often for many years and sometimes lifelong. However, durability depends on factors like progression of otosclerosis, prosthesis stability, and ear health. Dr. Purodha Prasad explains that regular follow-up and hearing assessments help ensure long-term success.
