Microdose gentamicin administration via the round window microcatheter: results in patients with Meniere's diseaseM E Hoffer
The Department of Defense Spatial Orientation Center, Naval Medical Center San Diego, California 93124 2200, USA
Ann N Y Acad Sci 942:46-51. 2001..Our results are compared to the published literature examining transtympanic injection. In addition, the underlying science supporting this type of treatment is examined...
Use of the round window microcatheter in the treatment of Meniere's diseaseM E Hoffer
Department of Defense Spatial Orientation Center, Naval Medical Center San Diego, San Diego, California 92134 2200, USA
Laryngoscope 111:2046-9. 2001..We applied the 1995 American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery criteria to this patient group to analyze the results of treatment...
Morphologic changes in the inner ear of Chinchilla laniger after middle ear administration of gentamicin in a sustained-release vehicleM E Hoffer
Department of Defense Spatial Orientation Center, Naval Medical Center San Diego, CA 92134 5000, USA
Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg 120:643-8. 1999..We also examine measurement of hair cell damage with heat shock protein levels. By better understanding the actions of gentamicin in this animal model, we hope to facilitate safer use of intratympanic medicines in our patient population...
