Material and methods. 25 cases of stapes revision surgery out of the 385 total treated surgically otosclerosis cases are discussed. Results. In group A (patients after total stapedectomy) the following indications for the secondary surgical procedure were observed: 12 cases – platinum wire prosthesis displacement with ossicular chain discontinuity; 3 cases – perichondrium or adipose tissue atrophy; 2 cases of incudo-stapedial joint luxation.
