Abstract

By means of the electro-scanning microscope we were able to demonstrate the three-dimensional bony structure of the normal stapes, and the variations in structure of the different stages of otosclerosis. One case of osteopsatyrosis is also discussed. The callus formation in an experimentally fractured footplate is compared with otosclerosis.
