    Guinea pig ears show remarkable healing capabilities after surgery. The round window membrane spontaneously healed in most cases, though perilymphatic hemorrhage and organ of Corti degeneration were observed.

    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Auditory Neuroscience
    • Veterinary Medicine

    Background:

    • Previous studies suggest guinea pig middle and inner ears possess significant healing potential.
    • Surgical interventions can lead to complications such as hemorrhage and tissue damage.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the healing capacity of the guinea pig middle and inner ear following surgical procedures.
    • To assess the correlation between surgical trauma, hemorrhage, and auditory function.

    Main Methods:

    • Surgical creation of round window perforations in guinea pigs.
    • Observation of spontaneous healing of the round window membrane.
    • Assessment of perilymphatic hemorrhage and degeneration of the organ of Corti.
    • Correlation of anatomical findings with electrophysiological measurements.

    Main Results:

    • The round window membrane demonstrated spontaneous healing in 12 out of 13 animals.
    • Perilymphatic hemorrhage was frequently observed, with an uncertain origin.
    • Degeneration of the organ of Corti was noted in some cases, potentially linked to hemorrhage.
    • Electrophysiological measurements generally correlated with anatomical findings, though discrepancies were observed in some animals.

    Conclusions:

    • The guinea pig middle and inner ear exhibit a strong tendency for healing after surgical insult.
    • Perilymphatic hemorrhage and subsequent organ of Corti degeneration are potential complications.
    • While anatomical and functional correlations exist, further investigation is needed to fully understand the observed discrepancies.
