This induces an inertia-related phase lag between the
ossicles and the surrounding bone, i.e., to motion of the stapes footplate in the oval window, leading to inner ear fluid displacements and pressure differences across the basilar membrane, and subsequently its displacement and a traveling wave.
Air in the anterior chamber of 3 eastern screech owl eyes may have occurred from a fractured scleral
ossicle (arrow), leading to perforation of the globe at the level of the sclera behind the lid margins.
This can leave associated skeletal material in the form of isolated
ossicles collected alongside more complete specimens insufficiently studied or completely ignored in favor of the articulated specimens.
Among the
ossicles involved, the incus was the most commonly affected.
During ossiculoplasty, based on the condition of the
ossicles, there are different methods ranging from minimal applications, such as bone cement or prosthesis applications performed in the absence of
ossicles.
Instead, we used artificial and animal models, which allowed us to optimize the quality of the
ossicle vibration sensing system."
This bone
ossicle is situated superiorly to the dens of axis and differs morphologically from persistent ossiculum terminale or from odontoid fracture.
(2010a, 2010b) investigated the
ossicles of the Cottidae, Cyclopteridae and Liparidae (Scorpaeniformes) and SEM imaged the taxonomically important tooth plates and gill raker tubercles of these fishes.
In the middle of the 16th century, the anatomists Andreas Vesalius (1514-1564) and Giovanni Filippo Ingrassia (1510-1580) discovered the auditory
ossicles in the tympanic cavity of the human petrous portion.
Of the three
ossicles from the middle ear, the incus was often reported in literature to be the most eroded bone and the more distant from the inflammation focus [6, 7].
Meanwhile, since the tunnel was adjacent to the FN, ChT, EAC, and the
ossicle, any damage of these structures, especially which of the FN, would lead to severe sequela to patients.
While viewing the ear through an operating microscope, the surgeon reshapes and transposes the bones, replacing an
ossicle with a plastic substitute or grafting an
ossicle from cartilage.
