Ossiculoplasty is a common surgery in otolaryngology. It is described to be of different types and using various materials. Commonly used materials are reshaped ossicles, refashioned cartilage from concha or septum, bone as well as various synthetic materials like gold titanium. Each of them have variable outcome and choice of them are dependent on the individual case and surgeon preference.
