Bony labyrinth morphometry indicates locomotor adaptations in the squirrel-related clade (Rodentia, Mammalia). [PDF]

open access: yesProc Biol Sci, 2015
The semicircular canals (SCs) of the inner ear detect angular acceleration and are located in the bony labyrinth of the petrosal bone. Based on high-resolution computed tomography, we created a size-independent database of the bony labyrinth of 50 mammalian species especially rodents of the squirrel-related clade comprising taxa with fossorial ...

Bony labyrinth morphology clarifies the origin and evolution of deer. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2017
AbstractDeer are an iconic group of large mammals that originated in the Early Miocene of Eurasia (ca. 19 Ma). While there is some consensus on key relationships among their members, on the basis of molecular- or morphology-based analyses, or combined approaches, many questions remain, and the bony labyrinth has shown considerable potential for the ...

Early life malnutrition and fluctuating asymmetry in the rat bony labyrinth [PDF]

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, 2021
AbstractMaternal malnutrition during gestation and lactation is known to have adverse effects on offspring. We evaluate the impact of maternal diet on offspring bony labyrinth morphology. The bony labyrinth develops early and is thought to be stable to protect vital sensory organs within.

Membranous Labyrinth Position in the Lateral Semicircular Canal: Considerations for Gene Therapy Delivery [PDF]

open access: yesOTO Open
Introduction Fenestration of the lateral semicircular canal has been proposed to improve intracochlear gene therapy delivery, but the relationship between the membranous and bony labyrinths at the canal apex has not been systematically defined.

The bony labyrinth of toothed whales reflects both phylogeny and habitat preferences. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2018
AbstractThe inner ear of toothed whales (odontocetes) is known to have evolved particular shapes related to their abilities to echolocate and move under water. While the origin of these capacities is now more and more examined, thanks to new imaging techniques, little is still known about how informative inner ear shape could be to tackle phylogenetic ...

Hearing Preservation After Segmental Semicircular Canal Destruction: A Report of Two Rare Cases [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Case Reports
Semicircular canal fistulas are a complication of cholesteatomatous otitis media. In extremely rare cases, extensive destruction of the bony labyrinth may result in loss of approximately one‐third of the semicircular canal arc, often with wide exposure ...

The bony labyrinth of Qafzeh 25 Homo sapiens from Israel [PDF]

open access: yesArchaeological and Anthropological Sciences, 2021
The bony labyrinth has received growing attention in the field of human evolution as it is a useful phylogenetic indicator in hominins and is particularly useful for distinguishing anatomically modern humans and Neanderthals. The partial adult skeleton of Qafzeh 25 dated to 92 ± 5 ka B.P.

A diagnostic pitfall: Advanced labyrinthitis ossificans simulating congenital inner ear malformation on CT and MRI [PDF]

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports
Labyrinthitis ossificans (LO) is a rare pathological ossification of the membranous labyrinth, typically arising after inflammatory or infectious insults to the inner ear.

The mammalian bony labyrinth reconsidered, introducing a comprehensive geometric morphometric approach

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, 2012
AbstractThe bony labyrinth in the temporal bone houses the sensory systems of balance and hearing. While the overall structure of the semicircular canals and cochlea is similar across therian mammals, their detailed morphology varies even among closely related groups.
