Endolymphatic sac tumors (ELSTs) are rare, papillary adenomatous tumors that arise from the endothelium of the endolymphatic sac. We demonstrate a difficult case of endolymphatic sac tumor and how it is managed via transcanal endoscopic assisted ...

Results of surgical treatment of patients with Meniere’s disease
The study analyzed the clinical effect of the surgical treatment of 25 patients with Meniere’s disease, 20 of which underwent endolymphatic sac drainage and five of which underwent vestibular neurectomy via translabyrinthine approach.

Early synapsids neurosensory diversity revealed by CT and synchrotron scanning
Abstract Non‐mammaliaform synapsids (NMS) represent the closest relatives of today's mammals among the early amniotes. Exploring their brain and nervous system is key to understanding how mammals evolved. Here, using CT and Synchrotron scanning, we document for the first time three extreme cases of neurosensory and behavioral adaptations that probe ...

SLC26A4 targeted to the endolymphatic sac rescues hearing and balance in Slc26a4 mutant mice.
Mutations of SLC26A4 are a common cause of human hearing loss associated with enlargement of the vestibular aqueduct. SLC26A4 encodes pendrin, an anion exchanger expressed in a variety of epithelial cells in the cochlea, the vestibular labyrinth and the ...

Emerging Therapeutic Strategies for Hearing Loss
Challenges still exist in treating hearing loss in cases of severe damage to hair cells or spiral ganglion neurons. Here, a schematic diagram of cochlear sensory hair cells and auditory nerves is presented. It is found that in normal Corti organs, hair cells have upright stereocilia at the top and auditory neurons at the base. Ototoxic drugs, noise, or

Endolymphatic Duct Blockage and Anatomical Variations Management
Endolymphatic duct blockage technique should be dictated by a precise anatomical understanding and surgical adaptation. This article focuses on the surgical approaches and anatomical variations of the endolymphatic sac during the transmastoid route, which varies with the size of the duct within the petrous bone and its accessibility.

Lamellar projections in the endolymphatic sac act as a relief valve to regulate inner ear pressure
The inner ear is a fluid-filled closed-epithelial structure whose function requires maintenance of an internal hydrostatic pressure and fluid composition.
