  • Title: [Morphologic studies of the toxicity of ethacrynic acid in the spiral prominence].
    Author: Mees K, Arnold W.
    Journal: Arch Otorhinolaryngol; 1982; 236(3):217-28. PubMed ID: 7159274.
    Abstract:
    Ultrastructural changes in the guinea pig spiral prominence were studied at various times after a single intravenous injection of ethacrynic acid (40 mg/kg body-weight). Initial swelling of endolymph-facing epithelial cells was followed by dilatation of the intercellular spaces and marked shrinkage of the stroma cells surrounding the spiral prominence vessel. While the changes in the stria vascularis and the spiral prominence progressed at about the same pace, the regression to normal ultrastructure set in earlier in the spiral prominence.
