Abstract:
A total of 1,067 patients complaining of hearing impairment, dizziness, and tympanophony were admitted for the treatment to the Surdological Department of N.I. Pirogov City Clinical Hospital No 1 during the period from 2000 to 2010. As many as 326 (30.5%) patients were preliminarily diagnosed with Meniere's disease based on their medical histories, clinical condition, and the results of questionnaire studies. All of them were subjected to comprehensive audiologic and vestibulogic examination with the use of up-to-date techniques. The data thus obtained allowed to reveal labyrinthine hydrops in 275 (84%) patients. It is concluded that 101 (9.5%) patients presenting with the typical symptoms of Meniere's disease had labyrinthine hydrops.
