Objective: To evaluate outcome of single stage ossicular reconstruction in patients with
chronic otitis media.
Methods: We assessed thirty-three patients with chronic otitis media who underwent either

Results: The mean preoperative ABG was 47.27±6.39 dB while mean postoperative ABG
was 13.91±7.96 dB (p
