Description Pure tone threshold audiometry: pure tone average (PTA) preoperatively: 100,7+-11,0dB HL, postoperatively: 40,2+-8,4dB HL, mean pré and postoperative difference:60,6+-14,4dB HL;(p<0,01). Speech audiometry (SA): mean maximal speech recognition threshold preoperatively:9,2+-15,3%, pastoperatively:56,8+-19,0%, mean pre and postoperative difference: 47,4+-22,1%:(p<0,01). The evaluation of communication sklil according to Nottingham scale: grade 7 in 17 patients (23%), grade 6 in 27(36%), grade 3 in 17(23%), grade 4 in 9(12%), grade 3 in 3(4%) and grade 2 in 1(1%).
