Dr Georg M. Sprinzl is Professor of Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery and leads the Implant team of the Department of Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery in St. P\u00f6lten, Lower Austria, which is the largest department in Austria for ORL. Simultaneously, he is the Head of the Department. He focuses on stapes surgery, surgery of active middle ear implants and cochlear implantation as well as on neurotologic and oncologic skull base surgery. Sprinzl was trained in oncologic surgery by Prof. Werner in Marburg\/Germany and was responsible for the cochlear implantation program.<\/p>\n

He developed an ongoing educational program for surgeons with interest in Cochlear implantation and Vibrant Sound Bridge Surgery. Sprinzl is PI of several clinical trials in the field hearing implants. He has a\u00a0special interest for\u00a0sound localization and speech perception in bilateral users of Vibrant Sound Bridge. Additionally he has established a novel animal cochlear implant model in sheep together with the Inner Ear Laboratory (Prof. Dr. A. Schrott-Fischer), University of Innsbruck, Austria. His main research interests are the development of new atraumatic cochlear implant electrodes for the restoration of residual hearing and the development of new bone anchored hearing aids.<\/p>\n

He was the first to implant the new bone conduction device Bonebridge worldwide.<\/p>\n

Prof. Dr. Sprinzl has published over 75 articles in peer-reviewed journals. He regularly publishes articles in various areas of otolaryngology and head and neck oncology. Due to the development of the educational program he is heavily involved in clinical teaching in over 30 countries in the field of otology.<\/p>\n
