Centenary birthday of Jean-Marc Sterkers: pioneer of vestibular schwannoma surgery

2 May 2025 | ENTA - Otology, ENTA - Vestibular Disorders
Professor Jean-Marc Sterkers has been a leading figure in the field of otology and neurotology for several decades. On the verge of his 100th birthday, we celebrate an exceptional career through the memories of his son and colleagues. Prof Olivier...

Does pre-op intratympanic gentamicin improve balance control after vestibular schwannoma surgery?

1 September 2018 | | Schwannoma, gentamicin, postural control, rehabilitation
This retrospective study was based on data from 44 patients selected from a cohort of 153 who had undergone surgical resection of vestibular schwannoma over a 10-year period. The aim was to evaluate the dynamics of the postural control system...

Can and should vestibular schwannoma surgery be carried out via the endoscopic transcanal approach?

1 May 2019 | | ENTA - Neurotology, ENTA - Otology, ENTA - Skull Base Surgery
The extent and scope of endoscopic ear surgery has rapidly progressed in recent years, and this paper, from one of the leading proponents of this technique, reports on the outcomes of a case series of patients who have had total...

Impaired vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) gain correlates with hearing loss in vestibular schwannoma

9 September 2020 | | ENTA - Neurotology, ENTA - Vestibular Disorders
The lack of correlation between the size of vestibular schwannoma (VS) and degree of hearing loss and vestibular function tests is well known. In this retrospective study, the focus was on the correlation between VOR gain of semicircular canal function,...

Ultrasonic bone aspirators for internal auditory meatus ‘drilling’ in retrosigmoid vestibular schwannoma resection

2 May 2025 | | ENTA - Neurotology, ENTA - Skull Base Surgery
In this article, the authors describe the retrosigmoid approach to a vestibular schwannoma, using an ultrasonic bone aspirator as an alternative to the standard drill. Vestibular schwannomas (VS) are benign, usually slow-growing tumours of the vestibular nerve. Management of VS...

Illuminating ear education: building interactive models to enhance inner ear understanding

6 November 2024 | | ENTA - Audiology - Adult, ENTA - Vestibular Disorders
Understanding the anatomy and function of the inner ear, particularly the vestibular apparatus and cochlea, is fundamental to audiology and otolaryngology education. However, the complex geometry and intricate functional relationships of these structures challenge us to find clear ways to...
