Stimulation of the vestibular nerve

Clinical Otolaryngology and Allied Sciences, 1998
Introduction. The aim of this study was the development of a simple galvanic stimulator for routine clinical use, which by stimulation of the vestibular nerve helps to discriminate between labyrinthine and retro-labyrinthine lesions, as well as to localise the side (left–right) of the retro-labyrinthine function loss. Patients and methods.

Deafferentated vestibular nerve

Proceedings, annual meeting, Electron Microscopy Society of America, 1983
Contrary to the cochlear branch of the VIIIth nerve, the vestibular branch does not degenerate quickly in the squirrel monkey after the end organs are surgically removed. This surgical procedure is favored by some investigators who advocate that removal of the vestibular receptors does eventually lead to the death of the nerve.

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 ...

The cerebellar projection of the vestibular nerve in the cat

Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1979
AbstractThe projection of the vestibular nerve to the cerebellum of the cat was examined with silver degeneration methods after complete lesions of the vestibular ganglion. The majority of the primary vestibular afferents were traced to the cortex of the ipsilateral nodulus and uvula, relatively fewer entering the ipsilateral flocculus. Fibers were not

Kissing neurinomas of the vestibular and vagal nerves

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 1996
We report the clinical and neuroimaging features of a patient with double schwannomas originating from the vagal and vestibular nerves. Such an association seemed unique, and its surgical implications are discussed.

Morphological aspects of the human vestibular nerve

The Laryngoscope, 1990
AbstractA quantitative study was made of the number of fibers, their diameters, and distribution in the nerves innervating individual vestibular receptor organs of three human temporal bones. The specimens were obtained from autopsies conducted within 4 hours postmortem.

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 neuritis affects both superior and inferior vestibular nerves

Neurology, 2016
To characterize the profiles of afferent dysfunction in a cross section of patients with acute vestibular neuritis using tests of otolith and semicircular canal function sensitive to each of the 5 vestibular end organs.Forty-three patients fulfilling clinical criteria for acute vestibular neuritis were recruited between 2010 and 2016 and studied within

Vestibular-like facial nerve schwannoma

Auris Nasus Larynx, 2004
To evaluate the prevalence as well as the management of primary facial nerve schwannoma (PFNS) presenting as vestibular schwannoma.A retrospective review was carried out on 146 patients referred to and operated upon in our institution over a 5-year period for tumors of the internal auditory canal extending or not into the cerebello-pontine angle (TICA).
