K-Piston with Loop
Titanium Stapes Prosthesis
Titanium provides very good sound conduction even at higher frequencies because of it small mass.
The titanium K-Piston is available in two different diameters and a variety of lengths. The piston, which extends into the perilymph, can be atraumatically rounded by means of the available lengths. The piston is rounded in the transition between the piston segment and the loop area, so as not to offer an attachment surface for vibration-damping scar formation during the ingrowth of possibly extensive, laterally oriented connective tissue around the prosthesis.
The K-Piston is made substantially softer and more adaptable in the area of the loop through a number of sophisticated production procedures. In case of a narrow incus the off-centered loop is easy to close and allows for a perfect fit around the incus. Problems of a too loose fit are reduced.
Benefits
- Low weight
- Stable fit
- Reduced necrosis risk due to extra wideloop band
- Atraumatic design
- In case of a narrow incus the off-centered loop is easy to close and allows for a perfect fit around the incus
- Well documented by scientific studies
- Pure titanium
