BACKGROUND: Increased body mass index (BMI) has been associated with postoperative complications in multiple surgical specialties. In otologic surgery involving the stapes, where appropriate patient positioning and surgical dexterity are necessary for proper prosthesis placement, patients with higher BMI could make surgery more challenging. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of BMI on outcomes after stapes surgery.
METHODS: Medical records were examined from January 2015 to December 2017 in patients undergoing stapedectomy or stapedotomy at two tertiary care facilities. A retrospective cohort analysis comparing hearing outcomes on postoperative audiogram following procedural intervention with BMI was performed. The primary outcome was postoperative air-bone gap (dB) on audiogram.
RESULTS: Two hundred sixty three stapedotomy and stapedectomy patients were included in the study. Six percent had BMI less than 18.5 (underweight), 30% had BMI between 18.6 and 24.9 (normal weight), 38% had BMI between 25 and 29.9 (overweight), 24% had BMI above 30 (obese). The mean preoperative and postoperative air-bone gap (ABG) was 27.0 dB (standard deviation [SD] 15) and 10.4 dB (SD 10.6), respectively, with a postoperative ABG less than or equal to 20 dB in 87% of cases. There were no significant differences in postoperative ABG results when comparing the BMI categories (p = 0.11).
CONCLUSIONS: Stapedotomy and stapedectomy are effective surgeries that can be performed by experienced surgeons with successful hearing improvement. While high BMI patients may be a challenge to position appropriately for their surgery, this does not translate to altered otologic outcomes for these patients.
