Abstract
A comparison of the postoperative air-bone gaps to pre- and postoperative bone conduction (BC) was made in two groups of patients with otosclerosis, 18 cases with poor preoperative BC thresholds and 15 cases with good preop. thresholds. The gaps to the postoperative BC showed less variation than the gaps to the preop. BC threshold. The postop. BC may therefore serve as a more stable and natural reference when calculating a postoperative air-bone gap.
