Ω Connector

One of the major success factors of total ossicular reconstruction is to ensure a centralization of the prosthesis and minimize the risk of dislocation of the Total prosthesis. Given the appropriate spatial conditions in the oval niche the new Ω Connector may be the solution. It is connected to the prosthesis shaft with a micro joint, no crimping instruments are needed. The resulting flexible joint is adjustable in all directions and may overcome varying spatial alignments of the footplate and tympanic membrane or malleus. The product is kept in place by pure fluid adhesion force. The Ω connector is compatible to all KURZ® Total prostheses with a hollow stem of Ø 0.8 mm.
