Vestibular Neurectomy and Microvascular Decompression
Meniere's disease is typically characterized by the classic symptomatological triad consisting of vertigo associated with nausea and vomiting, fluctuating but progressive hearing loss, and tinnitus. Aural fullness is also a frequent symptom. The main pathophysiological substrate of Meniere's disease is certainly endolymphatic hydrops, the etiology of which is probably multifactorial, but still ...
متن کاملTinnitus Outcome in Surgery for Vertigo.
The effect of surgery for vertigo on tinnitus was evaluated in 90 patients who underwent surgery for disabling vertigo for Menieres disease. The three procedures studies included a destructive labyrinthectomy, endolymphatic sac decompression and shunt, and vestibular neurectomy. Patients who underwent a vestibular neurectomy had a significantly better tinnitus outcome than those who underwent s...
متن کاملEndolymphatic sac decompression as a treatment for Meniere's disease.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Endolymphatic sac decompression is a surgical treatment option for patients with medically intractable Meniere's disease. However, effectiveness is debated because published data show great variability. Outcome-based research studies are useful in incorporating the patient's perspective on the success of treatment. To further assess effectiveness of endolymphatic sac decom...
متن کاملEffects of endolymphatic sac decompression surgery on endolymphatic hydrops.
CONCLUSIONS The present findings suggest that complete control of vertigo after endolymphatic sac decompression surgery (ESDS) does not always depend on improved vestibular function or reduced endolymphatic hydrops. Vertigo control is, however, associated with hearing stability. OBJECTIVE Among surgical treatments for intractable Meniere's disease, ESDS is performed to preserve and improve in...
متن کاملLarge vestibular aqueduct: large endolymphatic sac?
The first description of large vestibular aqueduct (LVA) was by Carlo Mondini in 1791 from his dissection of the temporal bones of a boy born deaf (Mondini, 1791) Mondini not only described and drew the LVA which he measured at seven lines or about 15 mm wide, but he opened the voluminous endo-lymphatic sac which he found to be 'full of a rather viscous humour, clear and yellowish which obvious...
