      Novaceck and Wyss [31 ] analyzed the significance of these different morphologies and pointed out that whereas the lack of a stapedial foramen is necessarily correlated with the stapedial artery not going through the stapes, the stapedial artery does not always pierce the stapes in bicrurate stapes.
