Abstract

Endolymphatic sac decompression has shown limited success for the treatment of Ménière's disease (MD). We have published a novel technique with very promising results for the treatment of refractory MD: the Endolymphatic Duct Blockage (EDB) with two titanium clips. One of the challenges of this technique was an increased incidence of intraoperative Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) Leak. To assess the effect of intraoperative CSF Leak on short-term surgical outcomes. Retrospective comparative study in a tertiary care center (61 patients). MD patients who underwent EDB were included. Intraoperative CSF Leaks were documented. Surgical outcomes assessed were the presence of postoperative Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), aural fullness, tinnitus, vertigo spells and pure tone average (PTA), speech discrimination scores (SDS) and bone conduction thresholds (BCT). Data were collected for these visits: preoperative, 1 week, 1 and 6 months postoperatively. Outcomes for the CSF Leak group (CSF +) (n = 22) were compared to remaining patient (CSF-) (n = 39). There was no significant difference in the occurrence of postoperative BPPV, aural fullness, tinnitus and vertigo spells. There was no significant difference in PTA, BCT or SDS bet...Continue Reading
