Cochlear Aqueduct Morphology in Superior Canal Dehiscence Syndrome [PDF]

Audiology Research, 2023
The cochlear aqueduct (CA) connects the scala tympani to the subarachnoid space and is thought to assist in pressure regulation of perilymph in normal ears, however, its role and variation in inner ear pathology, such as in superior canal dehiscence ...

Morphology of the Tympano-Periotic Complex in Stranded Odontocetes in Northeast Brazil. [PDF]

J Morphol
This study presents the morphological and morphometric characterization of the tympano‐periotic complex (TPC) in six odontocete species stranded along the northeastern coast of Brazil. A total of 57 TPCs were analyzed, revealing interspecific differences in key anatomical features and supporting taxonomic differentiation.

From Sound to Silence: Cerebellar Abscesses and Herniation Due to Cochlear Implant Infection With <i>Escherichia coli</i> and <i>Bacteroides fragilis</i>. [PDF]

Case Rep Infect Dis
Cochlear implantation (CI) is a safe and well‐established intervention for sensorineural hearing loss, with a low incidence of severe postoperative infections. We present the first reported case of cerebellar abscess and herniation due to CI infection. This unique case involves a 57‐year‐old man with recurrent cochlear implant infections, necessitating

Treating Hearing Loss: From Cochlear Implantation to Gene Therapy. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
Cochlear implantation is the primary treatment for deafness, restoring functional hearing in over a million people. Recently, gene therapy has enabled biological hearing restoration in a small number of patients with OTOF‐related mutations. This perspective evaluates both approaches, concluding that cochlear implants will remain the standard for most ...

Blood Labyrinth Barrier Waste Clearance as Assessed by GBCAs on MRI: A Scoping Review. [PDF]

Laryngoscope Investig Otolaryngol
ABSTRACT Objective The discovery of the glymphatic system in the brain and eye has raised the hypothesis of a similar system in the inner ear. Dysfunctional lymph fluid dynamics may contribute to inner ear conditions such as Meniere's Disease (MD) and endolymphatic hydrops (EH).

Timing of cochlear implantation in large vestibular aqueduct syndrome–a retrospective cohort analysis [PDF]

Frontiers in Neurology
IntroductionLarge vestibular aqueduct syndrome (LVAS) typically manifests fluctuating, progressive, or sudden hearing loss. Cochlear implantation (CI) is a critical intervention for LVAS patients when hearing aids (HA) no longer confer sufficient benefit.
