Description
FOR COUPLING TO THE MALLEUS
In ossicle reconstruction the malleus often still exists. Many surgeons want to preserve it and thus ensure stable coupling to the prosthesis.
REDUCED RISK OF DISLOCATION AND MIGRATION
Since the area around the malleus handle usually has the largest tympanic membrane deflection, simultaneous implant/drum contact is beneficial here. MNP’s concave recess facilitates this contact when placed under the malleus handle providing implant stability. Because of this recess the head plate of the MNP is relatively smaller
MAXIMUM INTRAOPERATIVE VISIBILITY
The slimmer profiled, fenestrated head plate increases placement visibility
