The ICD code H80 is used to code Otosclerosis
Otosclerosis or otospongiosis is an abnormal growth of bone near the middle ear. It can result in hearing loss. The term otosclerosis is somewhat of a misnomer. Much of the clinical course is characterised by lucent rather than sclerotic bony changes and hence why it is also known as otospongiosis.
