Progression of Peripheral Vestibular System Degeneration Secondary to Otitis Media in the Chinchilla Model
Our results revealed progressive loss of peripheral vestibular cells and ganglion neurons in cases with persistent OM, which closely aligns with the findings from human otopathology studies. This supports the chinchilla as a reliable model for vestibular pathology research.
