Chirurgie de la surdité.

Ce terme a été initialement employé en France pour désigner les interventions chirurgicales utilisées dans le traitement de l’otospongiose : fénestration, mobilisaton de l’étrier, platinectomie ou platinotomie et interposition d’une prothèse stapédienne . La tendance actuelle est d’utiliser ce terme pour tout geste chirurgical visant à améliorer l’audition.
