Endovascular occlusion of a persistent stapedial artery prior to stapedotomy: a novel approach
ConclusionEndovascular coil occlusion of a PSA is feasible and safe in patients with favorable anatomy and facilitates middle ear surgery. It decreases the size of the artery and minimizes the risk of intraoperative bleeding in patients with a large PSA. The  future role of this novel technique in the management of patients with PSA-related conductive hearing loss and pulsatile tinnitus remains to be determined.

Patient-preferred outcomes in patients with vestibular schwannoma: a qualitative content analysis of symptoms, side effects and their impact on health-related quality of life
ConclusionThis qualitative study demonstrates that in this population many patients with VS encounter participation difficulties in their daily physical and social activities and value hearing and balance preservation, reduced tinnitus, and restored energy as preferred outcomes as they are hampered by symptoms and side effects related to hearing, balance, and energy. Healthcare professionals should consider these key points and use these and the patient-preferred outcomes in consultation, shared decision making, treatment, and follow-up to optimize patient-centred care.

Fractionated Stereotactic Radiotherapy compared to Stereotactic Radiosurgery for Vestibular Schwannoma in patients with type-2 Neurofibromatosis
CONCLUSION: In the NF2 population, FRT may yield worse control rates than SRS. Whenever possible, it is preferable to not fractionate treatment for these patients. FRT results, nevertheless, are still good. More and larger prospective trials are warranted.PMID:37657590 | DOI:10.1016/j.wneu.2023.08.110

IJERPH, Vol. 20, Pages 6697: Post-COVID-19 Syndrome: Audiometric Findings in Patients with Audiological Symptoms
The objective of this observational, descriptive cross-sectional study is to describe the audiometric findings of post-COVID-19 patients with audiological symptoms. A sample of 47 patients with a diagnosis of COVID-19 infection was included: The age range was between 18 and 50 years old, the mean age was 37.0 years with a standard deviation of ±8.3 years, and 32 patients (68.1%) were female and 15 male patients (31.9%). Patients were recruited by the Otolaryngology service at Civil Fray Antonio Mayor Hospital from September 2020 to December 2022. Tonal audiometry was performed in a window of no more than 3 m...

Extreme lateral infracondylar approach for internal jugular vein compression syndrome: A case series with preliminary clinical outcomes
ConclusionThe ELI approach for IJV decompression appears to be safe for patients who are not ideal endovascular candidates due to bony anatomy. Confirming long-term efficacy in relieving debilitating clinical symptoms requires longer follow-up and a larger patient cohort. Carefully selected patients with symptomatic bony IJV compression for whom there are no effective medical or endovascular options may benefit from surgical IJV decompression.

Long-Term Hearing Loss after Acute Acoustic Trauma in  the French Military: A Retrospective Study
CONCLUSIONS: This study highlights the prevalence of long-term hearing impairment after AAT in the French military. The findings emphasize the importance of preventive measures, including proper use of hearing protection devices, and the need for timely diagnosis and treatment. Further research is warranted to explore gender susceptibility to AAT and evaluate the impact of different weapons on AAT characteristics. The study also underscores the potential benefits of higher doses of corticosteroid therapy in reducing the risk of long-term hearing impairment. Overall, the findings contribute to a better understanding of AAT ...

Effective treatment of refractory tinnitus by bilateral deep brain stimulation of the medial geniculate body of the thalamus: A case report
Tinnitus is the perception of a sound in the absence of an audible source. In 1.2% of the population, tinnitus has a large impact on several aspects of daily life and is often accompanied by depression, anxiety and sleep disturbances [1]. Tinnitus is associated with high costs of care, as well as societal and economic burden [2]. Despite the large impact on a person ’s life, treatment options remain limited. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is considered a promising treatment for refractory tinnitus [3].

Meniere's disease: Pathogenesis, treatments, and emerging approaches for an idiopathic bioenvironmental disorder
Environ Res. 2023 Aug 28:116972. doi: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.116972. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMeniere's disease (MD) is a severe inner ear condition known by debilitating symptoms, including spontaneous vertigo, fluctuating and progressive hearing loss, tinnitus, and aural fullness or pressure within the affected ear. Prosper Meniere first described the origins of MD in the 1860s, but its underlying mechanisms remain largely elusive today. Nevertheless, researchers have identified a key histopathological feature called Endolymphatic Hydrops (ELH), which refers to the excessive buildup of endolymph fluid in the membrano...
