A case of bilateral congenital conductive deafness with mild auricular deformity is presented, and the anomalous structure deformity of the ossicles was multi-focal in this case, and a previous report indicates that ossicular malformation in the ear with congenital conductive deafness is multi-focal when the external ear is only slightly deformed. Bilateral ossicular reconstruction with replacement of the stapes yielded satisfactory results.

Objectives: Although various stapedotomy and stapedectomy techniques exist, anchoring the piston can be challenging. We present a novel surgical approach for treating congenital stapes malformations with an atypical facial nerve trajectory.
Methods: This is a case of a 7-year-old boy presenting with bilateral conductive hearing loss.

Background: Precise preoperative radiological evaluation of aural atresia is of utmost importance for surgical planning. Until now, multislice computed tomography (MSCT) has been used but it cannot adequately visualize small structures such as the stapes. Flat-panel volume CT (fpVCT) with its secondary reconstructions (fpVCT) offers a high-resolution visualization of the middle ear.

The simultaneous occurrence of congenital ossicular anomalies and congenital cholesteatoma (CC) is exceedingly rare. This report describes the case of an 11-year-old boy who presented with conductive hearing loss, characterized by an average air conduction threshold of 50 dB in the left ear, without any prior otologic history. Preoperative assessments suggested the presence of CC, with suspicion of ossicular chain malformation.

Purpose: This study aims to analyze the imaging features of isolated congenital middle ear malformation (CMEM) on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT).
Methods: We retrospectively collected patients with surgically confirmed diagnosis of isolated CMEM in our hospital between January 2018 and June 2023. All patients underwent HRCT before surgery.
