2,000+ Stapedotomy surgeries performed at CARE Hospitals

CARE Hospitals Banjara Hills on Thursday announced a landmark in hearing restoration as Dr. N. Vishnu Swaroop Reddy, Clinical Director, Head of the Department & Chief Consultant – ENT, Facial Plastic and Cochlear Implant Surgeon, successfully completed over 2,000 Stapedotomy surgeries, restoring hearing in patients affected by Otosclerosis and other causes of hearing loss.

Otosclerosis causes progressive fixation of the stapes bone in the middle ear, leading to gradual hearing loss. Stapedotomy is a microscopic procedure in which the immobile stapes, the smallest bone in the human body, is replaced with a micro-prosthesis, restoring sound transmission. Dr. Swaroop Reddy stated that Otosclerosis is treatable and hearing can be restored with timely intervention but awareness is very important.

Congratulating Dr. Reddy, Mr. Abhinav Joshi, Chief Operating Officer, CARE Hospitals, Banjara Hills said that Dr. Vishnu Reddy’s work has built a Centre of Excellence in Micro Ear Surgery and Cochlear Implant Surgery at CARE Banjara, delivering impact and restoring quality of life for thousands.
