<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Middle ear'''<br />
<br />
The '''[[Middle ear]]''' is the portion of the [[ear]] that lies just behind the [[eardrum]] (tympanic membrane) and is connected to the outer ear (the visible portion of the ear) by the eustachian tube. It is separated from the [[inner ear]] by the oval and round windows.<br />
<br />
== Anatomy ==<br />
<br />
The middle ear contains three small bones, or [[ossicles]], known as the malleus (or hammer), incus (or anvil), and stapes (or stirrup). These bones amplify sound vibrations from the eardrum as they travel to the inner ear. The middle ear also includes the [[tympanic cavity]] and the [[mastoid air cells]], which are connected to the tympanic cavity by the mastoid antrum and aditus.<br />
<br />
== Function ==<br />
<br />
The primary function of the middle ear is to transmit sound from the outer ear to the inner ear. The ossicles amplify the sound vibrations and transmit them to the [[cochlea]] in the inner ear, where they are converted into electrical signals and sent to the brain.<br />
<br />
== Diseases and disorders ==<br />
<br />
There are several diseases and disorders that can affect the middle ear, including [[otitis media]], which is an infection or inflammation of the middle ear, [[cholesteatoma]], which is a skin growth that occurs in the middle ear, and [[otosclerosis]], which is an abnormal growth of bone in the middle ear that can cause hearing loss.<br />
<br />
== Treatment ==<br />
<br />
Treatment for diseases and disorders of the middle ear depends on the specific condition and can range from medication to surgery. For example, otitis media is often treated with antibiotics, while surgery may be required for conditions like cholesteatoma and otosclerosis.<br />
