Caspers CJI, et al. - In this prospective cohort study with a historical control group, researchers examined and contrasted the clinical outcomes of minimally invasive ponto surgery (MIPS) to the linear incision technique with soft tissue preservation (LIT-TP) for percutaneous bone-anchored hearing implants (BAHI). Twenty-five patients were considered to have been included in the test group. The control group consisted of 25 patients who had previously participated in another clinical trial and had already undergone BAHI surgery. Using MIPS in the test group and the LIT-TP in the control group all individuals were implanted with a 4.5-mm-wide implant. According to findings, MIPS is comparable to LIT-TP for skin sensibility at 6 months and soft tissue tolerability. With MIPS, the time for surgery is further decreased and better cosmetic results are reported. More research into MIPS, accurate drill protocol, tools used and associated implant loss is warranted.
