MNP - Malleus Notch Prosthesis
With this development, KURZ responds to surgeons’ requests for a titanium prosthesis that combines the favored open design of the headplate with a notch for placement under the malleus.
The malleus is often preserved in ears with chronic otitis media and surgeons like to have the option of placing the ossicular prosthesis under the malleus.
The Partial and Total MNP prostheses with malleus notch (Yung Design) were developed to combine the benefit of an open headplate with a notch to cradle the malleus. Comparing the user-friendliness of the MNP with conventional HA notched implants, most surgeons in a study at the Ipswich Hospital NHS Trust, UK, preferred the open design in the Titanium headplate. It provides a better view of the bottom end of the shaft and facilitates prosthesis manipulation with micro-instruments. Middle ear surgeons generally regard the user-friendliness of a prosthesis during placement as the more critical and difficult aspect of the procedure.
Benefits
- Notch headplate eliminates intraoperative implant bending for malleus adjustment
- Proven prosthesis design for a secure connection to the malleus handle
- Excellent biocompatibility
- Ultra light weight
- The open headplate design facilitates implant placement and handling
- Pure titanium
