Core Tip	To date, only a few papers have reported stapedial tendon ossification. Hearing is completely restored by dividing the stapedial tendon. However, as in our case, when hearing improvement after surgery is insufficient, the possibility of accompanying malformations should be suspected, and secondary surgery should be considered. Successful results can be obtained when the comorbid anomaly is resolved.
