  • Title: Cochlear Otosclerosis and Secondary Hydrops (Ménière's Syndrome).
    Author: Rajan D, Cureoglu S, da Costa Monsanto R.
    Journal: Otol Neurotol; 2024 Mar 01; 45(3):e201-e203. PubMed ID: 38361301.
    Abstract:
    This article discusses a case of cochlear otosclerosis leading to secondary hydrops and near-complete hearing loss. Histopathological examination revealed advanced multifocal otosclerosis in both temporal bones, with specific focus on cochlear invasion and significant bone resorption. The severity of the case ruled out surgical intervention due to the risk of further hearing loss. The article emphasizes the challenges in managing otosclerosis-related hydrops and highlights the potential use of advanced imaging techniques for diagnosis. The study underscores the complexity of otosclerosis-induced hearing loss, contributing to the understanding of this pathology and its impact on auditory function.
