MRI of the vestibular nerve after selective vestibular neurectomy

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 2006
In patients with Ménière's disease and persisting vertigo attacks after vestibular neurectomy (VNx) MRI of the vestibulocochlear nerve can identify residual vestibular nerve fibres that could be responsible for the vertigo attacks.To test if MRI of the vestibulocochlear nerve can corroborate the presence of residual vestibular nerve fibres in patients ...

The Vestibulocochlear Nerve: Vestibular Nerve

1995
Abstract It is well known that the vestibulocochlear or Vlllth cranial nerve is sensory in nature, and that its peripheral endings are found within the inner ear. Although usually thought of as a single nerve, it actually consists of two axon bundles that are intimately related throughout their intracranial course, as well as their ...

Vestibular nerve section

Operative Techniques in Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, 2001
Vestibular nerve section has been a reliable method to control dizziness caused by Meniere's disease. The surgery can be performed with 3 different approaches. Although the middle fossa and retrolabyrinthine approaches are well described, most vestibular nerve sections are now performed with the retrosigmoid approach.

Vestibular activation of sympathetic nerve activity

Acta Physiologica Scandinavica, 2003
AbstractAim: The vestibulosympathetic reflex refers to sympathetic nerve activation by the vestibular system. Animal studies indicate that the vestibular system assists in blood pressure regulation during orthostasis. Although human studies clearly demonstrate activation of muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) during engagement of the otolith ...

Vestibular nerve section for Ménière's disease

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1976
In summary: (i) the fact that VNS spares auditory function makes it preferable to labyrinthectomy. A comparison of VNS and the "conservative" operations on the inner ear shown that they have much the same effect on hearing. VNS by controlling vertigo may also provide an additional benefit by eliminating one of the stress factors concerned in the ...

Occult Schwannomas of the Vestibular Nerve

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1975
Five small occult schwannomas of the vestibular nerve were discovered on routine examination of 893 serially sectioned temporal bones of 517 individuals. Three arose from the superior division, one from the inferior division, and the other had a multicentric origin from both divisions of the nerve.

Human vestibular nerve morphology after labyrinthectomy

American Journal of Otolaryngology, 1981
Surgical labyrinthectomy leads to extensive and degenerative changes in the membranous labyrinth and is often followed by fibrosis and ossification of the vestibule and neuroma formation. After labyrinthectomy the distal processes of the vestibular nerve degenerate, but the nerve trunk within the internal auditory canal, including Scarpa's ganglion ...

Skew deviation following vestibular nerve surgery

Annals of Neurology, 1997
AbstractEighteen consecutive patients undergoing vestibular nerve surgery underwent pre‐ and postoperative examination of ocular motility. Five patients developed a skew deviation following surgery, with the lower eye on the operated side and an incomitant pattern of deviation in all cases.

Vestibular nerve section following previous mastoidectomy

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1996
AbstractVestibular neurectomy is an effective procedure in the management of vertigo due to active labyrinthine disease. Various approaches have been developed for selectively sectioning the vestibular nerve, in order to preserve serviceable hearing and avoid facial nerve injury.In patients who have a mastoid cavity, from previous surgery for chronic ...

Retrolabyrinthine Section of the Vestibular Nerve

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 1984
When symptoms of dizziness and episodic vertigo cannot be controlled through medical management or drainage procedures such as endolymphatic subarachnoid shunt operations, selective vestibular nerve section may be necessary. In the 1920s eighth cranial nerve sections were performed by neurosurgeons through the suboccipital approach but were frequently ...
