This study shows that individualized surgery effectively relieved vertigo in elderly Meniere's disease patients. Tailored surgical approaches led to satisfactory recovery, considering patient health and activity levels.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Geriatric Medicine

Background:

  • Meniere's disease often causes severe vertigo in elderly patients.
  • Surgical intervention is considered for incapacitating symptoms.
  • Individualized treatment plans are crucial for this demographic.

Observation:

  • Elderly patients with Meniere's disease and severe vertigo were assessed.
  • Surgical procedures were customized based on general health and physical activity.
  • Potential factors influencing recovery, such as vision, ischemia, and neurological conditions, were evaluated.

Findings:

  • The tailored surgical approach resulted in completely satisfactory postoperative outcomes.
  • Individualized treatment plans effectively managed symptoms and facilitated recovery.
