Good candidates for the surgery are those who have a fixed stapes from otosclerosis and a conductive hearing loss of at least 20 dB.
Candidates for a stapedectomy are individuals with otosclerosis, a condition where abnormal bone growth in the middle ear causes hearing loss. They typically have conductive hearing loss, often unimproved by hearing aids, and show a good prognosis for surgery based on audiometric testing and medical evaluation. Additionally, they should have realistic expectations and be in overall good health for surgery.

To restore hearing loss, which is usually due to otosclerosis, stapedectomy is performed
A stapedectomy is used to treat progressive hearing loss caused by otosclerosis, a condition in which spongy bone hardens around the base of the stapes.
stapedectomy
Harold Frederich Schuknecht has written: 'Stapedectomy' -- subject(s): Stapedectomy 'Pathology of the ear' -- subject(s): Diseases, Ear
Stapedectomy is a surgical procedure in which the innermost bone (stapes) of the three bones.of the middle ear is removed, and replaced with a small plastic tube of stainless-steel wire (a prosthesis) to improve the movement of sound to the inner ear.
The most serious risk is an increased hearing loss, which occurs in about 1% of patients. Because of this risk, a stapedectomy is usually performed on only one ear at a time.
It is removal of parts of the middle ear and insertion of prosthesis parts
It is performed in a hospital or outpatient surgical facility under local or general anesthetic
Full recovery takes about three weeks but hearing should improve immediately
Stapedectomy
Yes it is! I had a stapedectomy which was successful for 4 days. I did exactely what my doctor told me to do but on the 5th day after the operation, I experienced complete hearing loss again. The doctor said that it was possible for the prosthesis to have slipped from the bone and will require a second operation to refit it.
Yes-I have horrible ringing and pressure--it constantly feels as if I am in an airplane.
