Cochlear implantation in patients with < em > Streptococcus suis < /em > meningitis: clinical characteristics and postoperative evaluation
CONCLUSIONS AND SIGNIFICANCE: It is recommended for S. suis meningitis CI candidates to undergo CI promptly after controlling infection, preferably within four to six weeks. CI users with S. suis meningitis tend to exhibit suboptimal hearing rehabilitation outcomes, possibly associated with the more severe damage on spiral ganglion cells after S. suis meningitis.PMID:38651889 | DOI:10.1080/00016489.2024.2323650 (Source: Acta Oto-Laryngologica)

Electrically evoked auditory brainstem responses in deaf children with cochlear nerve canal stenosis
CONCLUSIONS AND SIGNIFICANCE: The physiological function of the peripheral auditory pathway in children with CNCs is poorer than that in children with no IEMs. Postoperative auditory and speech abilities may depend on the severity of cochlear nerve malformation and auditory conduction function.PMID:38634540 | DOI:10.1080/00016489.2024.2333785 (Source: Acta Oto-Laryngologica)

The risk of facial nerve palsy after benign parotidectomy. A quality project
CONCLUSION AND SIGNIFICANCE: Our findings endorse partial superficial parotidectomy and extracapsular dissection as low-risk treatments for benign parotid tumours. However, prospective studies are warranted to elucidate recovery rates and long-term consequences of facial nerve palsy, contributing to refined surgical approaches and patient care in parotid surgery.PMID:38634637 | DOI:10.1080/00016489.2024.2336557 (Source: Acta Oto-Laryngologica)

High fluence in laser stapedotomy aggravates transient subjective dizziness
CONCLUSIONS AND SIGNIFICANCE: Appropriate setting of parameters with lower fluence is desirable for the efficiency and safety of laser stapedotomy.Abbreviations: ABG: air-bone gap; SD: standard deviation.PMID:38546378 | DOI:10.1080/00016489.2024.2329287 (Source: Acta Oto-Laryngologica)

Differences in semicircular canal function in the video head impulse test in patients in the chronic stage of sudden sensorineural hearing loss with vertigo and vestibular neuritis
CONCLUSIONS AND SIGNIFICANCE: Comparison of the two vHIT results revealed differences in the SCC dysfunction patterns. This may be due to the different pathophysiological mechanisms of the two vestibular disorders, which may result in prolonged vertigo.PMID:38546396 | DOI:10.1080/00016489.2024.2330680 (Source: Acta Oto-Laryngologica)
