Rapid Postmortem Temporal Bone Extraction and Dissection of Human Inner Ear Organs From Organ Donors

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
We developed a postmortem protocol for temporal bone extraction and dissection in organ donors, enabling atraumatic bilateral temporal bone retrieval within 1–2 h of ischemia, followed by stepwise microsurgical dissection of neurosensory organs. Combining rapid extraction, abbreviated decalcification, and atraumatic microsurgical dissection, this ...

Rapid adaptation of multisensory integration in vestibular pathways

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2015
Sensing gravity is vital for our perception of spatial orientation, the control of upright posture, and generation of our every day activities. When an astronaut transitions to microgravity or returns to earth, the vestibular input arising from self ...

ASESSMENT OF IMAGING IN CONGENITAL INNER EAR ANOMALIES AND ITS RELATION TO COCHLEAR IMPLANTATION [PDF]

Zagazig University Medical Journal, 2018
Background: congenital SNHL may be caused by abnormalities of th-e membranous, or bony labyrinth. Because ofimprovements in imaging techniques and appearance of high resolution CT and MRI, anomalies of bony labyrinth canbe diagnosed.

The Relationship Between Blood Lipids, Coagulation Indexes, Blood Homocysteine and Sudden Deafness: A Retrospective Study and Mendelian Randomization Analysis

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Certain blood components, including blood lipids, coagulation parameters, and homocysteine, have been suggested to correlate with the incidence and prognosis of sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL). However, the nature of these associations remains controversial.

Characterization of the Middle Ear Microbiome in Meniere's Disease by 16S rRNA Gene Sequencing Compared to Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the middle ear microbiome in Meniere's disease (MD) patients. Methods Middle ear smears from 10 MD patients (ME group) and 10 chronic suppurative otitis patients (OE group) were collected during surgery and processed via 16S rRNA gene sequencing.

Computed tomographic diagnosis and treatment of pneumolabyrinth in a mare with temporohyoid osteoarthropathy

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Pneumolabyrinth, which is the presence of gas within the labyrinth of the inner ear, can be associated with severe peripheral vestibular signs. This report describes a case of pneumolabyrinth in a horse that presented with vestibular ataxia. An 8‐year‐old Quarter Horse mare that presented with cranial nerve VII deficits underwent a standing ...

Can fresh frozen heads be used to perform hydraulic pressure measurements during cochlear implant electrode insertion?

B-ENT, 2021
Objective: Intracochlear hydraulic pressure change that occurs during cochlear implant surgery is thought to play a role in hearing preservation. Presence of intracochlear air might be a problem when performing pressure measurements in temporal bones. In
