Small papillary tumor in the saccule [PDF]
International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology Extra, 2007 Papillary tumors of the ear are aggressive neoplasms. Previously, a tumor growing in the saccule had not been reported. We report a tumor found incidentally in the saccule of a patient. Serial sections of both temporal bones of the patient were studied in order to analyze the tumor's origin and influence on audio vestibular function. In the right inner

Case Report: Isolated Idiopathic Saccular Dysfunction
Frontiers in Neurology, 2021 Advances in vestibular testing have now allowed us to test each semicircular canal as well as the utricle and saccule, independently. This has led to the discovery of new patterns of vestibular dysfunction that were once impossible to evaluate.
