Pneumatization in Otosclerosis

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1999
In this study, degrees of mastoid pneumatization in otosclerotic and normal patients were compared on CT scan and plain X-rays. This study was prospective, conducted on inpatients and outpatients at a large community hospital. Patients were consecutively evaluated with no sex or age predilection.

Otosclerosis

2011
Otosclerosis is one of the more common forms of adult-onset hearing loss with a prevalence of 0.3-0.4% in Caucasians. It is typically characterized by a conductive hearing loss due to labyrinthine endochondral sclerosis that upon stapedio-vestibular joint invasion results in loss of free motion of the stapes. Its etiology remains poorly understood with

Genetics of otosclerosis

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1997
AbstractOtosclerosis is an early-middle adult life genetic disease affecting bone remodelling in the ear. Current knowledge of otosclerosis as an inherited disease dates to the mid-19th century, and we report here an attempt to understand the genetics of otosclerosis and detect its heterogeneity. The analysis was conducted on 151 otosclerotic families.

Obliterative otosclerosis

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1991
AbstractAn analysis of 420 consecutive cases of obliterative otosclerosis seen in the Christian Medical College Hospital, Vellore is presented. The proportion of truly obliterative otosclerosis is 33.09 per cent (139 ears). Our male to female ratio in truly obliterative otosclerosis is 1.48:1, while in the non-obliterative group it was 1.34:1. The mean

Tinnitus and otosclerosis

European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2000
Fifty patients with otosclerosis and tinnitus were studied for the course of the tinnitus after stapes surgery. Tinnitus disappeared in 64% of the cases, improved in 16%, was unchanged in 14%, and worsened in 6%. The reduction in tinnitus was more favorable after a small fenestra stapedotomy than after a partial stapedectomy with removal of the ...

Histopathology Of Otosclerosis

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1993
This histopathologic review illustrates that otosclerosis is a very pleomorphic bone dyscrasia. It may fix the stapes by a tiny bridge of abnormal bone or may totally obliterate it. It may spread to the cochlea to produce either a sensorineural loss of varying degree or deafness. Lesions may be sclerotic, spongiotic, or fibrous but usually comprise all

Otosclerosis and Mucopolysaccharidosis

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1987
By means of a literature review, clinical observations and temporal bone histopathology in the Hunter syndrome, we could show a reason for otosclerosis in childhood, a very rare observation. Therefore we do not believe that the presence of otosclerotic foci in temporal bones is mere coincidence in MPS II.

The etiology of otosclerosis: A combination of genes and environment

open access: yesLaryngoscope, 2010
: Otosclerosis is a common form of hearing loss characterized by abnormal bone remodeling in the otic capsule. It is a complex genetic disease, caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors.

Obliterative otosclerosis

The Laryngoscope, 1987
AbstractA total of 2, 985 stapedectomies were done during the 25‐year period 1959 to 1984 in a busy urban otologic practice. One hundred twenty‐three of these cases were found to have obliterative otosclerosis which resulted in a drill‐out stapedectomy.

Obliterative otosclerosis

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1999
AbstractFrom January 1990 to December 1996, 293 primary stapedectomies for otosclerosis were performed, among which 14 had obliterative otosclerosis (4.7 per cent). Probability of bilateral obliterative disease was 50 per cent. With this particular condition, a drill-out procedure was used to perform either a stapedectomy or a stapedotomy.
