Disrupted Vestibular Nuclei Neuron Development in a Chick Model for Congenital Vestibular Disorders
ABSTRACT Children with syndromic, congenital vestibular disorders (CVDs) form a sac‐like inner ear with missing or truncated semicircular canals and experience delayed motor development with lifelong challenges to maintain posture and balance. How the abnormal inner ear affects downstream central vestibular neural circuitry has not been investigated ...

A three‐dimensional introital exo‐anal ultrasound approach combining high‐frequency imaging with curvilinear reconstruction enables reproducible visualization and measurement of the anterior external anal sphincter. This method provides a feasible, widely accessible tool for detailed anatomical assessment of the anal sphincter complex.

The literature about bony defects in the semicircular canal system is highly inconsistent. Therefore, we analyzed a series of 700 high-resolution multislice CT examinations of the temporal bone for semicircular canal dehiscencies.

ABSTRACT Hearing impairment is attributed to factors such as age, genetic predisposition, and environmental influences, among which environmental factors are considered modifiable. Among various environmental factors, the role of poor lifestyle habits is particularly critical, yet the specific mechanisms by which they contribute to hearing damage ...

Intraspecific variation of cochlear morphology in bowhead and beluga whales
Abstract The bony labyrinth of the petrosal bone, a distinctive feature of mammal skulls, is often identified in micro‐computed tomography imaging to infer species' physiological and ecological traits. When done as part of a comparative study, one individual specimen is normally considered representative of a species, and intraspecific variation is ...

Antibiotic‐Impregnated Calcium Sulfate Beads for Local Therapy of Severe Skull Base Osteomyelitis
Novel Local Therapy of Severe Skull Base Osteomyelitis. ABSTRACT We report on a patient with severe progressive osteomyelitis of the lateral skull base, despite targeted long‐term antibiotic therapy. Successful treatment and recovery of the facial nerve palsy were achieved through additional surgical debridement and insertion of synthetic calcium ...

Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) is a crucial prenatal diagnostic tool, but a declining number of procedures makes training a challenge. Here we describe a transcervical CVS simulator made from ballistic gelatin. Ninety‐three Maternal‐Fetal Medicine providers used the simulators during hands‐on workshops and completed surveys regarding their fidelity ...

Mastoid Surgery Does Not Normalize Tympanometric Middle Ear Pressure in Children With Cholesteatoma
Conflicting mechanism‐based hypotheses have been used to promote selection of different approaches to management of the mastoid in order to optimize middle ear pressure homeostasis after removal of cholesteatoma. For example: (a) conservation of mastoid mucosa and opening of ventilation pathways endoscopically to normalize function, (b) removal of ...
