Endoscopic evaluation of tympanic isthmus patency and its effect on success rate of myringoplasty in tubotympanic type of chronic suppurative otitis media

The Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology
Background Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) involves persistent middle ear inflammation, often leading to tympanic membrane perforation and hearing loss. Tympanic isthmus patency is key to middle ear ventilation, influencing tympanoplasty outcomes.

The endocannabinoid/cannabinoid receptor 2 system protects against cisplatin-induced hearing loss [PDF]

, 2018
Previous studies have demonstrated the presence of cannabinoid 2 receptor (CB2R) in the rat cochlea which was induced by cisplatin. In an organ of Corti-derived cell culture model, it was also shown that an agonist of the CB2R protected these cells ...

Recurrent Maxillary Ameloblastoma Presenting as an External Auditory Canal Mass

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Ameloblastoma with temporal bone involvement is exceedingly rare, with no prior reports of external auditory canal presentation. This case report demonstrates successful multidisciplinary management with extensive skull base resection and adjuvant radiation therapy, emphasizing the role of proton therapy in achieving tissue‐sparing treatment and long ...

How I Do It: A Stepwise Surgical Technique for Fisch Class B Glomus Tympanicum

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
We describe a stepwise retroauricular microsurgical workflow for bulky tympanic paragangliomas, combining circumferential canaloplasty with temporary removal and replacement of the tympanomeatal flap and malleus to optimize exposure and bleeding control.

Measurement of Vibrating Tympanic Membrane in an In Vivo Mouse Model Using Doppler Optical Coherence Tomography

Journal of Imaging, 2019
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has a micro-resolution with a penetration depth of about 2 mm and field of view of about 10 mm. This makes OCT well suited for analyzing the anatomical and internal structural assessment of the middle ear.
