About

Currently, the data from the literature do not evaluate the use of the middle ear implant in implanted patients in the medium term (10 years and over) but only in the short term (1-5 years).

Based on the observation of the absence of these data, we considered it necessary to evaluate in the medium term the satisfaction of the patients carrying a middle ear implant and their rate of abandonment with a horizon of 10 to 20 years of apparatus.
