Round Window Fibrous Plugs [PDF]
Intratympanic drug delivery is now widely used in the clinical setting. A variety of medications and substances have been shown to pass from the middle to the inner ear via the round window membrane (RWM) (1). The surface area of the round window is approximately 2.5 mm2. The RWM is thicker around the edges and thinner in the center, with an average

Round window membrane rupture [PDF]
AbstractRound Window Membrane Rupture is a surgically correctable cause of sudden hearing loss and vertigo. Reported is a 19‐year‐old male who had proven round window membrane rupture secondary to barotrauma. Surgical exploration revealed an abnormally large round window niche and membrane, possibly predisposing him to this injury.

Round Window Reinforcement-Induced Changes in Intracochlear Sound Pressure
Introduction: The round window membrane (RWM) acts as a pressure-relieving membrane for incompressible cochlear fluid. The reinforcement of the RWM has been used as a surgical intervention for the treatment of superior semicircular canal dehiscence and ...

Critical Evaluation of Round Window Membrane Sealing in the Treatment of Idiopathic Sudden Unilateral Hearing Loss [PDF]
ObjectivesRupture of the round window membrane with consecutive development of a perilymphatic fistula (PLF) is still a matter of controversial debate in the pathogenesis of idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSHL).

Morphometry around Cochleostomy Site to Aid Safe Cochlear Implantation [PDF]
Introduction: In morphologically normal-appearing inner ears, measurements of the distance between the round window and carotid canal (RCD), the maximum diameter of the basal turn of the cochlea next to the round window (BD), and the thickness of the ...
