Cochlear implantation after burn injury of the head

Cochlear Implants International, 2011
The loss of an auricle as a side-effect of burn injuries is a rare clinical event. If the patient also suffers fromsensorineural deafness, it is necessary, in planning management, to consider the aesthetic effects ofreconstructing or replacing the auricle as well as restoring the hearing.

Protective Effects of Corticosteroids and Neurosteroids on Cochlear injury

Medicinal Chemistry, 2011
Dysfunction of the cochlea causes sensorineural hearing loss. Glucocorticoids have been clinically applied for sensorineural hearing loss of sudden onset, including idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss, acoustic injury, Meniere's disease, and immune-mediated hearing loss.

Cochlear injuries induced by the combined exposure to noise and styrene

Hearing Research, 2009
Workers exposed to industrial solvents are also frequently exposed to mechanical noise. In this study, a combination of a continuous noise (100 dB SPL) and an impact noise (110 dB SPL) was used to mimic the noise exposure in the workplace. A noise band of 10-20 kHz was used to induce a cochlear injury in the same cochlear region in the rat as styrene ...

Pravastatin attenuates noise-induced cochlear injury in mice

Neuroscience, 2012
Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is one of the most common forms of sensorineural hearing loss and a well-known contributor to presbycusis. Based on the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the pathogenesis of NIHL, augmentation of the antioxidative defense system is a major target for pharmacological prevention.

The Potential Risk of Carotid Injury in Cochlear Implant Surgery

Laryngoscope, 2002
AbstractBackground The advent of cochlear implantation has revolutionized the options afforded to the deaf population. With the increase in the prevalence of this procedure have come larger experiences in the associated technical challenges and complications.Results We present the evaluation and management of a patient with an unusual complication of ...

Time course of cochlear injury discharge (excitotoxicity) determined by ABR monitoring of contralateral cochlear events

Hearing Research, 2014
The dynamics of cochlear excitotoxicity can be monitored from effects on the contralateral ear. After unilateral mechanical ablation of the cochlea (in a mouse model) we observed immediate elevations in auditory brainstem evoked response (ABR) thresholds in the contralateral ear.

Cochlear Implantation in Patients Profoundly Deafened After Head Injury

Otology & Neurotology, 2012
There is very little information in the literature regarding outcomes of cochlear implantation in patients profoundly deafened after head injury. The aim of this study was to assess outcomes in this group of patients.Retrospective case review.The Manchester Cochlear Implant Programme, University of Manchester.Profoundly deafened patients after head ...

Calcium concentration in cochlear endolymph after vestibular labyrinth injury

NeuroReport, 2010
The endolymphatic calcium concentration [Ca2+] is essential for acoustic transduction. This study investigated the changes in cochlear function caused by vestibular labyrinth destruction in the acute phase by measurement of the endocochlear potential and endolymphatic [Ca2+].Hartley guinea pigs underwent lateral semicircular canal transection with ...

Inhibition of Post‐Meningitic Cochlear Injury with Cerebrospinal Fluid Irrigation

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 2006
OBJECTIVELabyrinthitis ossificans, the pathologic ossification of the otic capsule associated with profound deafness and loss of vestibular function occurs frequently as a sequella of bacterial meningitis and subsequent purulent labyrinthitis. Experimentally, in Streptococcus pneumoniae meningitis, it has been shown that a vigorous inflammatory ...

Involvement of TNF-α and IFN-γ in Inflammation-Mediated Cochlear Injury

Annals of Otology, Rhinology and Laryngology, 2019
Objectives: Inflammation is crucial for the pathogenesis of acquired sensorineural hearing loss, but the precise mechanism involved remains elusive. Among a number of inflammatory mediators, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) plays a pivotal role in cisplatin ototoxicity.
