Other otosclerosis - what does this mean
Other otosclerosis is a type of hearing loss that is caused by abnormal bone growth in the middle ear. this growth can lead to a stiffening of the bones in the middle ear, which can prevent the transmission of sound from the outer ear to the inner ear. the growth can also cause the bones to rub against each other, leading to a decrease in sound transmission.
What happens during the disease - other otosclerosis
Other otosclerosis is a condition in which the middle ear bones become abnormally stiff, leading to conductive hearing loss. the exact cause is unknown, but it is believed to be a genetic disorder that is triggered by environmental factors. it is thought to be caused by abnormal bone remodeling, which results in the accumulation of abnormal bone tissue in the otic capsule, leading to the abnormal stiffness of the middle ear bones.
