    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Neurosurgery
    • Vestibular Disorders

    Background:

    • Meniere's disease is a chronic inner ear disorder.
    • Endolymphatic Sac Surgery (ESS) is a treatment option for Meniere's disease.
    • Varied success rates reported in ESS literature necessitate further investigation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the long-term efficacy of Endolymphatic Sac Surgery.
    • To assess outcomes in vertigo control and cochlear function post-surgery.
    • To determine the optimal timing for ESS in idiopathic endolymphatic hydrops.

    Main Methods:

    • A retrospective analysis of 66 patients undergoing Endolymphatic Sac Surgery.
    • Long-term follow-up ranging from 24 months to 10 years.
    • Assessment of vertigo symptom recurrence and changes in cochlear function.

    Main Results:

    • Only 55% of patients experienced long-term vertigo relief.
    • Improvement in cochlear function was observed in only 30% of cases.
    • A trend towards vertigo recurrence was noted with longer follow-up periods.

    Conclusions:

    • Endolymphatic Sac Surgery remains important for idiopathic endolymphatic hydrops.
    • ESS may have questionable value early in the disease course.
    • Total removal of the endolymphatic system is recommended for many Meniere's disease patients.
