Significados de otosclerosis en inglés

Retrospective evaluation of this MRI study showed subtle positive findings of otosclerosis.

Of these, 2 were known cases of otosclerosis, hence excluded from the study.

Introduction: Hearing loss due to otosclerosis is effectively treated with surgery.

The single MRI which was reported as normal initially showed otosclerosis on HRCT.

The otic capsule of patients with otosclerosis contains premature bone with numerous cartilaginous remnants.

For comparison the ossicles of traumatic subluxation and otosclerosis are also included in our material.

Patients: Thirty-six subjects undergoing 38 stapedotomies for otosclerosis by 5 surgeons participated.

We report on exemplary cases of progressive bilateral sensorineural hearing loss caused by otosclerosis, restricted to the cochlea.

Some investigators have proposed that the pathogenesis of otosclerosis is related to these cartilaginous rests in the otic capsule.

Results: Of these 13 cases, 12 were reported as showing MRI features suspicious for otosclerosis.

On the other hand, ossicles in the groups of traumatic subluxation and otosclerosis remain histologically normal without evidence of pathologic changes.

In this study we investigated the presence of a humoral immune reaction against cartilage-specific antigens using ELISA-methods in patients with otosclerosis.

In this study, we have described the role of MRI as the first-line modality in the detection of previously undiagnosed otosclerosis.

Although far-advanced otosclerosis has known poorer hearing outcomes after stapes surgery, a long duration of hearing loss is an unreliable surrogate for this.

Conclusion: The end point of this study was to validate the subtle findings of otosclerosis on MRI, by comparison to the gold-standard modality HRCT.

The incidence of disturbances of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism were studied in two groups of patients; one group with Ménière's disease, the other with otosclerosis.
