Successful treatment of recurrent epididymo-orchitis: Laparoscopic excision of the prostatic utricle

Journal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons, 2009
Prostatic utricle presenting with recurrent epididymo-orchitis is not uncommon. Excision of prostatic utricle is the treatment of choice. The various techniques described in literature suffer from the disadvantages of incomplete excision due to poor view.

Elastic force restricts growth of the murine utricle

eLife, 2017
Dysfunctions of hearing and balance are often irreversible in mammals owing to the inability of cells in the inner ear to proliferate and replace lost sensory receptors.

Efficient Viral Transduction in Fetal and Adult Human Inner Ear Explants with AAV9-PHP.B Vectors

Biomolecules, 2022
Numerous studies have shown the recovery of auditory function in mouse models of genetic hearing loss following AAV gene therapy, yet translation to the clinic has not yet been demonstrated.

A METHOD OF TREATING THE PROSTATIC UTRICLE [PDF]

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1911
ABSTRACT Urethroscopy of the posterior urethra has been comparatively slow in developing, and not until the last few years has sufficient attention been directed to this important field. One result of this increased study has been the recognition of the important part which diseases of the verumontanum play in the production of severe and often ...

Static Otolith Signals Reflect Clinical Course in Acute Vestibular Neuritis

Clinical Otolaryngology, Volume 51, Issue 6, Page 861-866, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives To investigate how static and dynamic utricular functions differentially correlate with dizziness symptoms and quality of life (QoL) recovery in patients with acute vestibular neuritis (VN). Design Prospective observational study with 1‐week and 1‐month follow‐up assessments. Setting Tertiary referral centre. Participants Twenty‐six

Cell-type identity of the avian utricle

Cell Reports, 2021
The avian utricle, a vestibular organ of the inner ear, displays turnover of sensory hair cells throughout life. This is in sharp contrast to the mammalian utricle, which shows limited regenerative capacity. Here, we use single-cell RNA sequencing to identify distinct marker genes for the different sensory hair cell subtypes of the chicken utricle ...

A Novel Striated Membrane Contact Site in Vestibular Hair Cells

Biology of the Cell, Volume 118, Issue 10, October 2026.
The mammalian vestibular system features type I and II hair cells (HCs) with distinct neurotransmission: type I uses both ribbon synapses and rapid non‐quantal transmission (NQT). We reveal a novel striated membrane contact between type I HCs and calyceal afferents, linked to atypical mitochondria.

Multi‐omics analysis of ion channels expressed by chicken embryo vestibular type I and type II hair cells

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 10, Page 4894-4914, 1 October 2026.
Abstract Balance and gaze rely on the rapid and accurate detection and signalling of head movements by vestibular type I and type II hair cells. Signal transduction and transmission involve several types of ion channels, which are acquired progressively during hair cell differentiation and whose identity is known only in part.

A Rare Case of Prostatic Utricle with Crossover Vas Deferens in Children

Medicina, 2021
Background: A prostatic utricle (PU) is an unusual pathology with most patients being asymptomatic. However, approximately 29% of patients may show lower urinary tract symptoms, recurrent urinary tract infections (UTI), postvoid dribbling, urethral ...

μVEMP: A Portable Interface to Record Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials (VEMPs) With a Smart Phone or Tablet

Frontiers in Neurology, 2018
Background: Cervical VEMPs and ocular VEMPs are tests for evaluating otolith function in clinical practice. We developed a simple, portable and affordable device to record VEMP responses on patients, named μVEMP.
