  • Title: Perilymph fistulas secondary to gunshot wound. Localization with a radioactive pharmaceutical.
    Author: Emmett JR, Staab EV, Fischer ND.
    Journal: Arch Otolaryngol; 1977 Feb; 103(2):98-102. PubMed ID: 836237.
    Abstract:
    The symptoms, clinical evaluation, routes of formation, and repair of perilymph fistulas are reviewed. We report a case with oval and round window perilymph fistulas secondary to a gunshot wound. A radioactive pharmaceutical was injected into the subarachnoid space in the lumbar area. Subsequent radioactivity was detected at the sites of the fistulas. We discuss the implications and a suggested technique for fistula detection.
