| Popis: | At the present time, neither the etiologic factors nor the pathophysiologic mechanisms that lead to the development of endolymphatic hydrops or Ménière's disease are known; however, the anatomic-pathologic alterations in the labyrinth that are produced by the disease are well-documented. Undoubtedly, what is not known is responsible for the controversial status and questionable benefit that surgical decompression and drainage procedures have upon the endolymphatic system. |
