Resumo
At the end of the 50´s Dr. Austin used for the first time a polythene crosspiece (support) to substitute a damaged ossicular chain and later Dr. Seehy coined with the words TORP and PORP where the chain was replaced by a prosthesis either totally or partially. Since then, different materials and systems have been used to perform those prosthesis, as the results weren´t so satisfactory as it was expected. In our surgical experience for years, we have found the same unsatisfactory results and for that reason we have designed a new system of prosthesis to reconstruct partially the chain with satisfactory results.
