    Abstract : Background: Patients with malleus fractures are described as rare in the literature. The cause of these fractures are most commonly trauma and digital manipulation of the ear canal, while in some cases the causes are unknown. READ MORE

  5. 3. Inflammatory mediators and immunocompetent cells in the middle ear with particular regards to otitis media and tympanosclerosis

    Author : Marie Forséni Flodin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : immunohistochemistry; inflammation; human middle ear; myringosclerosis; otitis media; rat; tympanosclerosis;

    Abstract : Tympanosclerosis is a well known sequela after acute and chronic otitis media. The pathologically calcified plaques are most commonly found in the tympanic membrane and if located only at this site, it is termed myringosclerosis. READ MORE

  6. 4. Middle ear mechanics : using temporal bone experiments to improve clinical methods

    Author : Anton Rönnblom; Krister Tano; Magnus Von Unge; Mimmi Werner; Måns Eeg-Olofsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Middle ear; conductive hearing loss; ossiculoplasty; human temporal bone; Laser doppler vibrometry; malleus fracture; middle ear muscles; muscle fiber composition; Oto-Rhino-Laryngology; oto-rhino-laryngologi;

    Abstract : BackgroundThe middle ear transmits and amplifies sound vibrations from the tympanic membrane via three ossicles to the inner ear. Moreover, it contains two muscles, the stapedius muscle (SM) which protects the inner ear from loud noise, and the tensor tympani (TT) whose function is still debated. READ MORE
