Subluxation of stapes foot plate

Inside our ear, there are tiny bones that help us hear. One of these bones is called the stapes. It normally sits firmly in place and helps pass sound into the inner ear. Sometimes, due to injury or surgery, the base of this bone (called the footplate) becomes loose or slightly out of position and falls in inner— this is called subluxation. When this happens, it can cause hearing loss or dizziness. To fix it, the surgeon uses a thin layer of fascia (a natural tissue taken from around the ear) to seal and support the loose area. Then, a tiny device called a piston is placed to replace the function of the damaged bone and help sound travel properly again. This surgery helps improve hearing and stabilizes the inner ear.
