TI  - Magnetic resonance imaging of endolymphatic space in patients with sensorineural 
      hearing loss: comparison between fluctuating and idiopathic sudden sensorineural 
      hearing loss.

AB  - Background: Recently, 3-Tesla magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) after an 
      intravenous gadolinium injection has been used to describe the endolymphatic 
      space (ELS).Objectives: This study described the histopathological differences 
      between idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL) and fluctuating 
      sensorineural hearing loss (FSNHL) by examining the ELS. Additionally, the 
      relationship between the affected cochlear and vestibular ELS/total fluid space 
      (TFS) volume ratio and the duration from the onset to MRI in patients with FSNHL 
      were evaluated.Material and methods: This study included 205 individuals without 
      vertigo: 47 controls, 94 with ISSNHL, and 64 with FSNHL. The TFS and ELS volumes 
      were measured and the ELS/TFS volume ratios (%) were evaluated.Results: The 
      cochlear and vestibular ELS/TFS volume ratios of the affected ear in patients 
      with FSNHL were significantly higher than that in those with ISSNHL. There was no 
      correlation between the duration from FSNHL onset to the MRI scan in the affected 
      cochlea and vestibule.Conclusion and significance: There were differences in the 
      form of hearing fluctuation and the extended ELS volume between ISSNHL and FSNHL. 
      ISSNHL cases with severe ELS extension were likely to change to FSNHL.
