The Minimally Invasive Star-Shaped Incision Technique and the Linear Incision Technique With Tissue Preservation for Percutaneous Bone Conduction Devices: A Retrospective Cohort Study
PurposeTo compare intra- and postoperative outcomes between the standard linear incision technique with tissue preservation (LITT-P) and the minimally invasive star-shaped incision (SSI).Study DesignA retrospective cohort study.MethodsPrimary outcomes evaluated operative time, implant survival, and...

description | PurposeTo compare intra- and postoperative outcomes between the standard linear incision technique with tissue preservation (LITT-P) and the minimally invasive star-shaped incision (SSI).Study DesignA retrospective cohort study.MethodsPrimary outcomes evaluated operative time, implant survival, and intra-operative complications. A secondary outcome evaluated soft tissue tolerability assessed by the Holger's classification.ResultsA total of 38 implants were placed (19 LITT-P; 19 SSI). The median and mean surgical duration for the LITT-P group was statistically shorter than the SSI group (p = 0.0001). No intra-operative complications were reported for both surgical approaches. Five implants were lost during postoperative follow-up: one in the LITT-P and four in the SSI cohort. Both cohorts showed favorable soft tissue tolerability. Less Holgers 1 and 2 and more Holgers 3 soft tissue reactions were observed after the LITT-P compared to the SSI.ConclusionThe novel SSI approach could be an alternative option based on the theoretical benefits and found favorable (and similar) soft tissue outcomes. Implant loss and surgical time are aspects to investigate regarding long-term durability and warrant further research. |
