Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Vestibular Disorders

Background:

  • Unilateral idiopathic endolymphatic hydrops causes severe, intractable vertigo and sensorineural deafness.
  • Conventional treatments may fail to alleviate symptoms, necessitating surgical intervention.
  • The Cody tack procedure is a less invasive surgical option.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the Cody tack procedure.
  • To assess vertigo control and hearing outcomes in patients with endolymphatic hydrops.
  • To establish the Cody tack procedure as a conservative treatment of choice.

Main Methods:

  • The study involved patients with unilateral idiopathic endolymphatic hydrops.
  • The Cody tack procedure was performed under local anesthesia.

  • Outcomes included vertigo control and hearing preservation/improvement.

    • Main Results:

    • Vertigo was controlled in approximately 80% of patients.
    • Morbidity associated with the procedure was minimal.
    • Hearing was maintained or improved in the majority of cases.

    Conclusions:

    • The Cody tack procedure is a safe and effective conservative surgical option.
    • It provides significant vertigo control for patients with endolymphatic hydrops.
    • The procedure offers the potential for hearing preservation or enhancement.
