Morphological studies of labyrinthine tissue in patients affected with Meniere’s disease and vestibular schwannoma following labyrinthectomy
This is one of the largest comparative histological study utilising operative samples from inner ear of living donors with active intractable MD and control patients with VS. There were no significant morphological differences between the two groups, suggesting that the aetiology lies elsewhere within the vestibular system. Examination of endolymphatic sac tissue is therefore a priority for future work.
