Does stapedotomy improve high frequency conductive hearing?

Stapedotomy is performed to address conductive hearing deficits. While hearing thresholds reliably improve at low frequencies (LF), conductive outcomes at high frequencies (HF) are less reliable and have not been well described. Herein, we evaluate post‐operative HF air‐bone gap (ABG) changes and measure HF air conduction (AC) thresholds changes as a function of frequency.
