  • Endoscopic Treatment of Middle Ear Myoclonus with Stapedius and Tensor Tympani Section: a New Minimally-Invasive Approach
    British Journal of Medicine & Medical Research 4(17): 3398-3405, 2014 SCIENCEDOMAIN international www.sciencedomain.org Endoscopic Treatment of Middle Ear Myoclonus with Stapedius and Tensor Tympani Section: A New Minimally-Invasive Approach Natasha Pollak1*, Roya Azadarmaki2 and Sidrah Ahmad1 1Department of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, Temple University School of Medicine, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. 2Metropolitan NeuroEar Group, Rockville, Maryland, USA.

Received 26th January 2014 th Case Study Accepted 11 March 2014 Published 27th March 2014 ABSTRACT Aims: We describe a new, entirely endoscopic surgical technique for treatment of middle ear myoclonus. Case Presentation: In our patient, the stapedius and tensor tympani tendons were sectioned to control chronic middle ear myoclonus. The procedure was performed using endoscopic ear surgery techniques, with the aid of rigid Hopkins rod endoscopes. Control of the pulsatile tinnitus was achieved after endoscopic tenotomy of the stapedius and tensor tympani, without any complications. Discussion and Conclusion: Endoscopic tensor tympani and stapedius tendon section is a new, minimally invasive treatment option for middle ear myoclonus that should be considered as a first line surgical approach in patients who fail medical therapy. The use of an endoscopic approach allows for easier access and vastly superior visualization of the relevant anatomy, which in turn allows the surgeon to minimize dissection of healthy tissue for exposure. The entire operation, including raising the tympanomeatal flap and tendon section can be safely completed under visualization with a rigid endoscope with good control of the pulsatile tinnitus.

All Rights Reserved. 2 This dissertation titled Mechanisms of High Sensitivity and Active Amplification in Sensory Hair Cells by MAHVAND KHAMESIAN has been approved for the Department of Physics and Astronomy and the College of Art and Sciences by Alexander B. Neiman Professor of Physics and Astronomy Joseph Shields Dean of College of Arts and Sciences 3 Abstract KHAMESIAN, MAHVAND, Ph.D., August 2018, Physics Mechanisms of High Sensitivity and Active Amplification in Sensory Hair Cells (118 pp.) Director of Dissertation: Alexander B. Neiman Hair cells mediating the senses of hearing and balance rely on active mechanisms for amplification of mechanical signals. In amphibians, hair cells exhibit spontaneous self-sustained mechanical oscillations of their hair bundles. In addition to mechanical oscillations, it is known that the electrical resonance is responsible for frequency selectivity in some inner ear organs. Furthermore, hair cells may show spontaneous electrical oscillations of their membrane potentials. In this dissertation, we study these mechanisms using a computational modeling of the bullfrog sacculus, a well-studied preparation in sensory neuroscience. In vivo, hair bundles of the bullfrog sacculus are coupled by an overlying otolithic membrane across a significant fraction of epithelium. We develop a model for coupled hair bundles in which non-identical hair cells are distributed on a regular grid and coupled mechanically via elastic springs connected to the hair bundles.

  • Pathway of a Sound Wave
    Pathway of a Sound Wave 1. The sound waves arrive at the pinna (auricle), the only visible part of the ear. 2. Once the sound waves have passed the pinna, they move into the auditory canal (external acoustic meatus) before hitting the tympanic membrane (eardrum). 3. Once the sound waves reach the tympanic membrane, it begins to vibrate and they enter into the middle ear. 4. The vibrations are transmitted further into the ear via three bones (ossicles): malleus (hammer), incus (anvil), and the stapes (stirrup). These three bones form a bridge from the tympanic membrane to the oval window. 5. Once sound passes through the oval window, it enters into the cochlea in the inner ear. 6. Hair cells in the organ of Corti (within the cochlea) are stimulated which in turn stimulates the cochlear branch of the vestibulocochlear nerve. 7. The cochlear nerve then transmits electrical impulses to the auditory region of the brain in the temporal lobe. Pathway of a Sound Wave 1.

  • The Malleus Maleficarum
    broedel.cov 12/8/03 9:23 am Page 1 ‘Broedel has provided an excellent study, not only of the Malleus and its authors, and the construction of witchcraft The Malleus Maleficarum but just as importantly, of the intellectual context in which the Malleus must be set and the theological and folk traditions to which it is, in many ways, an heir.’ and the construction of witchcraft PETER MAXWELL-STUART, ST ANDREWS UNIVERSITY Theology and popular belief HAT WAS WITCHCRAFT? Were witches real? How should witches The HANS PETER BROEDEL be identified? How should they be judged? Towards the end of the middle ages these were serious and important questions – and completely W Malleus Maleficarum new ones. Between 1430 and 1500, a number of learned ‘witch-theorists’ attempted to answer such questions, and of these perhaps the most famous are the Dominican inquisitors Heinrich Institoris and Jacob Sprenger, the authors of the Malleus Maleficarum, or The Hammer of Witches. The Malleus is an important text and is frequently quoted by authors across a wide range of scholarly disciplines.Yet it also presents serious difficulties: it is difficult to understand out of context, and is not generally representative of late medieval learned thinking. This, the first book-length study of the original text in English, provides students and scholars with an introduction to this controversial work and to the conceptual world of its authors. Like all witch-theorists, Institoris and Sprenger constructed their witch out of a constellation of pre-existing popular beliefs and learned traditions. BROEDEL Therefore, to understand the Malleus, one must also understand the contemporary and subsequent debates over the reality and nature of witches.

  • CT of the Normal Suspensory Ligaments of the Ossicles in the Middle Ear
    CT of the Normal Suspensory Ligaments of the Ossicles in the Middle Ear Marc M. Lemmerling, Hilda E. Stambuk, Anthony A. Mancuso, Patrick J. Antonelli, and Paul S. Kubilis PURPOSE: To establish the range of normal variation in the CT appearance of the middle ear ligaments and the stapedius tendon as an aid in detecting abnormal changes in these structures. METHODS: CT scans of the temporal bone in 75 normal middle ears, obtained with 1-mm-thick sections, were reviewed by two observers, who rated the visibility of the structures of interest on a scale of 1 to 5. RESULTS: The anterior, superior, and lateral malleal ligaments and the medial and lateral parts of the posterior incudal ligament were seen in 68%, 46%, 95%, 26%, and 34% of the ears, respectively. The stapedius tendon was seen in 27% of the cases. When visible, the ligaments were judged to be complete in 90% to 100% of the ears and the stapedius tendon was complete in 65% of cases. Their width varied considerably. Interobserver variability was high for most obser- vations. CONCLUSION: CT scans are more likely to show the malleal than the incudal ligaments. Although the interobserver agreement was statistically significant for most study parameters, the percentage of agreement above that expected by chance was low. When seen, the ligaments usually appeared complete. Understanding the normal range of appearance may help identify abnormalities of the ligaments and tendons of the middle ear.
