Relationship Between Cochlear Lateral Wall Changes and Endolymphatic Hydrops in Otitis Media. [PDF]
Despite otitis media and various disease processes being associated with endolymphatic hydrops, an exact explanation of the pathophysiology has yet to be reported. We studied a total of 15 chinchilla and 25 human temporal bones from our collection, which were categorized into acute otitis media, chronic otitis media (COM), and control groups, and a ...

Advanced imaging of head and neck infections
Abstract When head and neck infection is suspected, appropriate imaging contributes to treatment decisions and prognosis. While contrast‐enhanced CT is the standard imaging modality for evaluating head and neck infections, MRI can better characterize the skull base, intracranial involvement, and osteomyelitis, implying that these are complementary ...

Therapy‐refractory otitis should always be a warning sign that warrants further diagnostics (CT, MRI, biopsy). Otherwise, severe differential diagnoses such as LCH may be overlooked, especially in young children prone to non‐cooperative behavior. Abstract A 4‐year‐old girl was admitted to hospital with disturbance of balance.

Combination Immunosuppressive Therapy in Primary Autoimmune Inner Ear Disease in Pregnancy
Objective. Autoimmune inner ear disease (AIED) is a rare disorder characterized by rapidly progressive, sensorineural hearing loss that demonstrates good responsiveness to corticosteroid and immunosuppressive therapy. The pathophysiology is likely driven by chronic trafficking of immune cells into the inner ear, targeting inner ear proteins to ...
