Automastoidectomy — a case report
The Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology, 2023 Background Automastoidectomy denotes extensive destruction of the middle ear cavity and the mastoid air cells, mimicking the appearance of a reminiscent image of the post-mastoidectomy cavity.

Cancer therapy‐induced ototoxicity: Current challenges and emerging management strategies
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.This review comprehensively examines the key risk factors for cancer therapy‐induced ototoxicity, including cumulative drug dose, genetic susceptibility, and combined treatment regimens. It highlights current challenges in ototoxicity monitoring, such as insufficient timeliness and limited clinical adoption, and advocates for standardized auditory ...

Morphology and function of Neandertal and modern human ear ossicles. [PDF]
, 2016 The diminutive middle ear ossicles (malleus, incus, stapes) housed in the tympanic cavity of the temporal bone play an important role in audition. The few known ossicles of Neandertals are distinctly different from those of anatomically modern humans ...

Structure and function of the mammalian middle ear. I: Large middle ears in small desert mammals. [PDF]
, 2015 Many species of small desert mammals are known to have expanded auditory bullae. The ears of gerbils and heteromyids have been well described, but much less is known about the middle ear anatomy of other desert mammals.

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The oval window (OW) is an opening connecting the inner and middle ear. Its area has been shown to consistently scale with body mass (BM) in primates, and has been used alongside semi‐circular canal (SCC) size to differentiate Homo sapiens and fossil hominins, including Paranthropus robustus.

Into the dark: patterns of middle ear adaptations in subterranean eulipotyphlan mammals [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 Evolution of the middle ear ossicles was a key innovation for mammals, enhancing the transmission of airborne sound. Radiation into various habitats from a terrestrial environment resulted in diversification of the auditory mechanisms among mammals ...

Hearing impairment in murine model of Down syndrome
Frontiers in Genetics, 2022 Hearing impairment is a cardinal feature of Down syndrome (DS), but its clinical manifestations have been attributed to multiple factors. Murine models could provide mechanistic insights on various causes of hearing loss in DS.

Preliminary observations on scleral ossicles in performing functionalized 3D vascularized scaffolds for “critical-size” bone defect healing [PDF]
, 2017 The problem of “critical-size” bone defects occurs when a severe lesion is difficult to be self-recovered. Many strategies of regenerative medicine were used in the last decade, with translational approaches, to mimic both structure and function of the ...
