Classical and reversal stapedotomy both are exclusively done in otosclerosis but definite information regarding surgical advances, postoperative results, complications and information about how and in which patients these surgical techniques should exclusively be used are a source of continuous discussions. This prospective observational study was conducted in the Department of Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Shahbagh, Dhaka from July 2019 to December 2020 o compare the outcomes of classical and reversal stapedotomy in patients with otosclerosis. Total 28 cases of otosclerosis who underwent stapedotomy were divided in to two groups i.e. Group A (classical stapedotomy) & Group B (reversal stapedotomy) with 14 patients in each group. All patients were followed up post-operatively up to 3 months with Pure-tone audiometry (PTA). There is no significant difference between classical and reversal stapedotomy approach in terms of hearing improvement and complications. Chorda tympani injury was the main complication in both the groups. Regarding hearing gain and complications there was no significant difference between classical and reversal stapedotomy approach.
