  • Title: Tinnitus. II: Surgical management of conditions associated with tinnitus and somatosounds.
    Author: Hazell JW.
    Journal: J Otolaryngol; 1990 Feb; 19(1):6-10. PubMed ID: 2179577.
    Abstract:
    The literature relating to the effects of otological surgery on tinnitus is reviewed. The results of such surgery are often unpredictable with respect to postoperative tinnitus, and ablative surgery may well make the tinnitus worse. The concept of somatosounds (tinnitus arising from outside the auditory pathway) is presented, and the management of some conditions, including patulous Eustachian tube and palatal myoclonus, is discussed.
