Congenital Membranous Stapes Footplate Producing Episodic Pressure-Induced Perilymphatic Fistula Symptoms

Frontiers in Neurology, 2020
Introduction: Recent third window syndrome studies have revealed that the intact bony labyrinth and differences in the stiffness of the oval and round windows are essential for proper cochlear and vestibular function.

Flexibility within the middle ears of vertebrates [PDF]

, 2012
Introduction and aims: Tympanic middle ears have evolved multiple times independently among vertebrates, and share common features. We review flexibility within tympanic middle ears and consider its physiological and clinical implications.

Radiological Features and Pathognomonic Sign of Stapes Footplate Fistula in Inner Ear Malformations

Turkish Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2021
Objective:Some inner ear malformations may cause recurrent meningitis, which may be fatal. The etiology is usually a stapes footplate fistula which enables microorganisms to pass into the inner ear containing cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), causing repeated ...

A Comprehensive Three-Dimensional Model of the Cochlea [PDF]

, 2003
The human cochlea is a remarkable device, able to discern extremely small amplitude sound pressure waves, and discriminate between very close frequencies.

Dual contribution to amplification in the mammalian inner ear

, 2010
The inner ear achieves a wide dynamic range of responsiveness by mechanically amplifying weak sounds. The enormous mechanical gain reported for the mammalian cochlea, which exceeds a factor of 4,000, poses a challenge for theory.

Variation of the stapes and its surrounding anatomical structures based on micro-computed tomography

Folia Morphologica
BACKGROUND: Stapedotomy is the most efficient treatment for otosclerosis. The anatomical structure of the operation area is complex, but it has a great impact on the postoperative effect.

Ontogeny of the malleus in Mesocricetus auratus (Mammalia, Rodentia): Systematic and functional implications for the muroid middle ear

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The three mammalian auditory ossicles enhance sound transmission from the tympanic membrane to the inner ear. The anterior anchoring of the malleus is one of the key characters for functional classification of the auditory ossicles. Previous studies revealed a medial outgrowth of the mallear anterior process, the processus internus ...
