Abstract/OtherAbstract:
OBJECTIVE: To describe the events surrounding the introduction of the one-stage fenestration operation for otosclerosis and the presentation of the paper given to the American Otological Society in 1938. DATA SOURCES: Published data in scientific journals and news media, archival material from the New York Academy of Medicine and the John Q. Adams Center of The American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, and a personal interview with the late Gordon D. Hoople, M.D. CONCLUSION: This article describes Dr. Gordon Hoople's exclusive account of the events surrounding the presentation of the first paper of the Lempert one-stage fenestration operation to the American Otological Society, why it was never published, why detailed proceedings of The Society were expunged from the record, and why Samuel J. Kopetzky was expelled from the American Otological Society.
