Method to estimate the basal turn length in inner ear malformation types
Scientific Reports, 2023 The mathematical equations to estimate cochlear duct length (CDL) using cochlear parameters such as basal turn diameter (A-value) and width (B-value) are currently applied for cochleae with two and a half turns of normal development.

Relationship Between the Cochlear Aqueduct and Internal Auditory Canal: Surgical Implications for Transcanal Transpromontorial Approaches to the Lateral Skull Base. [PDF]
, 2020 HYPOTHESIS The cochlear aqueduct (CA) is subject to considerable anatomical variability. We hypothesize a topographical relationship between the CA and the internal auditory canal (IAC). BACKGROUND The CA represents the lower limit of dissection

Computed tomographic 3D analysis of the cochlear aqueduct—potential and limitations of clinical imaging [PDF]
, 2023 Background: The cochlear aqueduct (CA), which connects the scala tympani and the subarachnoid space, and its accompanying structures appear to have a significant relevance during cochlear implantation and an accurate visualization in clinical imaging is ...

Direct administration of 2-Hydroxypropyl-Beta-Cyclodextrin into guinea pig cochleae: Effects on physiological and histological measurements. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 2-Hydroxypropyl-Beta-Cyclodextrin (HPβCD) can be used to treat Niemann-Pick type C disease, Alzheimer's disease, and atherosclerosis. But, a consequence is that HPβCD can cause hearing loss. HPβCD was recently found to be toxic to outer hair cells (OHCs)

Cochlear aqueduct flow resistance depends on round window membrane position in guinea pigs [PDF]
, 2004 The resistance for fluid flow of the cochlear aqueduct was measured in guinea pigs for different positions of the round window membrane. These different positions were obtained by applying different constant pressures to the middle car cavity. Fluid flow
