THE ROLE OF THE SEMICIRCULAR CANALS IN CAUSATION OF MOTION SICKNESS AND NYSTAGMUS IN THE DOG

, 1964
The discrete surgical inactivation of all six semicircular canals was found to be equivalent to bilateral labyrinthectomy in eliminating motion sickness in dogs, even though the otolith organs remained functional.

Statistical shape modeling of the human inner ear through micro‐computed tomography imaging

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
In this study, 54 cadaveric temporal bone specimens underwent high‐resolution micro‐CT imaging. Images were semi‐automatically segmented and converted to 3D surface mesh models for morphological measurement and analysis. Statistical shape models were created for the inner ear, cochlea, and vestibular system, as well as for sex‐ and side‐based subgroups.

Preserved balance in a patient with congenital absence of two semicircular canals: a case report

The Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology
Background The semicircular canals are crucial components of the vestibular system, responsible for detecting angular head movements and maintaining balance. Their absence or malformation typically leads to significant vestibular dysfunction.

Ontogeny of murine bony semicircular canal form

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The labyrinthine geometry and functional anatomy of the semicircular canals have intrigued scientists for decades, and there has been considerable interest in understanding how these complex structures grow and develop with evidence emerging from human studies that size maturation occurs exceptionally early by comparison with other systems ...

Repeated video head impulse testing in patients is a stable measure of the passive vestibulo-ocular reflex

Journal of Otology, 2021
Objectives: The video head impulse test (vHIT) is used as a measure of compensation yet it’s stability in patients with vestibular pathology is unknown. Methods: 144 patients (n = 72 female, mean 54.46 ± 15.8 years) were grouped into one of three primary

Early Pliocene Varanus (Squamata, Varanidae) remains from Megalo Emvolon, Thessaloniki, Greece

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
The article describes new cranial and postcranial varanid material from Megalo Emvolon Lower Pliocene vertebrate fossil site near Thessaloniki. The fossils, likely representing a single individual, are referred to Varanus cf. marathonensis. Abstract This study describes new fossil varanid material from a recently discovered fossil spot (MVL site) at ...

The braincase of Malawisaurus dixeyi (Sauropoda: Titanosauria): A 3D reconstruction of the brain endocast and inner ear.

PLoS ONE, 2019
A braincase of the Cretaceous titanosaurian sauropod Malawisaurus dixeyi, complete except for the olfactory region, was CT scanned and a 3D rendering of the endocast and inner ear was generated. Cranial nerves appear in the same configuration as in other

Superior Semicircular Canal Dehiscence Syndrome without Vestibular Symptoms

International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2014
Introduction Superior semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome is mainly characterized by vestibular symptoms induced by intense sound stimuli or pressure changes, which occur because of dehiscence of the bony layer covering the superior semicircular canal.

Bilateral semicircular canal aplasia

European Annals of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Diseases, 2013
Bilateral semicircular canal aplasia is extremely rare; discovery, when the cochlear-vestibular system is normal and there is no hearing loss, is serendipitous.Bilateral semicircular canal aplasia was serendipitously discovered in a 24-year-old male during assessment of unilateral mixed hearing loss with subnormal contralateral hearing.

A detailed redescription of a skeletally immature ‘Redondasaurus’ suggests ontogenetic transformations in the taxon mirror phytosaurian morphological evolution

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The study of morphological evolution is fundamentally tied to ontogeny, yet studies of these heterochronic processes in the fossil record are rare. Fossils belonging to an ontogenetic series are difficult to assign to an ontogenetic stage due to inconsistent proxies for skeletal ages, challenging to taxonomically assign due to morphological ...
