• Purpose of Review This review briefly covers the history of stapedectomy, discusses the indications and problems encountered with revision surgery, and provides case examples with solutions. Recent Findings Revision surgery is challenging and successful outcome even in the most experienced specialists is 45–71%, which is far less than that of primary surgery. Summary Careful evaluation of the reasons for reoperation, anticipation of the common problems, and patient education on reasonable expectations are all very important for success.
