Hyaluronate gel stapedotomy.

چکیده
OBJECTIVE To evaluate hearing results and postoperative dizziness after stapedotomy with application of sodium hyaluronate gel (HG) to the oval window niche during fenestration of the footplate. STUDY DESIGN Case-control study comparing 27 stapedotomies with HG and 32 stapedotomies without HG. OUTCOME MEASURE Preoperative and postoperative audiometric data, postoperative dizziness (vertigo or dysequilibrium), and nystagmus. RESULTS Postoperative hearing results were not statistically different for the 2 groups. There were no cases of postoperative sensorineural hearing loss greater than 10 dB. Early postoperative dizziness (chi(2) = 4.08, P = 0.043) and nystagmus (chi(2) = 5.05, P = 0.024) were reduced in the HG group. CONCLUSIONS HG stapedotomy is safe and effective and results in less early postoperative dizziness and nystagmus when compared with the standard technique of stapedotomy. The application of HG to the oval window niche to prevent blood from entering or perilymph from escaping the vestibule during fenestration of the stapes footplate may contribute to a quicker recovery in outpatient otosclerosis surgery.

Involvement of covalently linked protein or peptide in the structure or synthesis of hyaluronate has not previously been convincingly demonstrated. We have developed conditions for double-labeling with [3H]leucine and [14C]acetate, then isolating and characterizing the cell-associated and secreted hyaluronate-protein complexes of Rous sarcoma virus-transformed chick embryo fibroblasts. The prep...

متن کاملRelease of hyaluronate from eukaryotic cells.
The mechanism of hyaluronate shedding from eukaryotic cell lines was analysed. All cell lines shed identical sizes of hyaluronate as were retained on the surface. They differed in the amount of hyaluronate synthesized and in the proportions of hyaluronate which were released and retained. A method was developed which could discriminate between shedding due to intramolecular degradation and that...
