Abstract

Background and Objectives: The purpose of this study was to operate patients with intractable Meniere’s disease. This is the first kind of study performed in Iran. Surgical intervention was offered to patients with Meniere’s disease who had failed medical treatment and had disabling symptoms. Surgical options included babyrinthectomy, vestibular neurectomy, and endolymphatic SAC SURGERY.Methodology: This was a prospective study in which 7 patients were operated by this technique and followed up for 17 months. After simple mastoidectomy, openning of facial recess, sigmoid sinus decompression and openning of posterior fossa dura, endolymphatic sac was found by fenestrometer and was opened. At the end of operation a ventilation tube was put in the tympanic membrane. All of them had failed medical treatments earlier and were unsatisfied of living. They were operated with sigmoid sinus decompression and sac enhancement.Results: After operation 5 (71%) of them were cured. The two (29%) of them were satisfied in reducing of their VERTIGO attacks. The audiometry showed improved hearing in two of them (29%) while stable hearing in others.Conclusion: In comparison to simple SAC SURGERY, the sigmoid sinus decompression and sac enhancement with opening of facial recess and ventilation tube showed better results in curing patients.
