¸ñÀû: In recent years, the clinical diagnosis rate of pulsatile venous
vascular tinnitus (PT) has been gradually increasing. In more than 250
surgical cases completed by our research team, we observed that some PT
patients have multiple defects in the sigmoid sinus and jugular bulb
osseous walls. Such patients require the repair of multiple osseous
defects, as there is a risk of not achieving improvements in PT after
surgery without addressing these defects. ¹æ¹ý:We included 7 patients with multiple osseous defects in the sigmoid sinus
and jugular bulb regions. Through the innovative approach of combined
bilateral endoscopic minimally invasive surgery, we utilized bone cement to
repair the osseous defects in the sigmoid sinus wall and jugular bulb
region. The effectiveness of the surgery was analyzed using the Tinnitus
Handicap Inventory (THI). °á°ú:Among the 7 patients, 6 showed the disappearance of PT symptoms in the
follow-up at 2 months after surgery, with a significant reduction in THI
values (P<0.05). Moreover, two patients experienced subjective tinnitus
postoperatively, which completely disappeared after 3 months. Particularly
noteworthy is that two patients exhibited the transverse sinus sign, and
the PT symptoms in these two patients were also relieved postoperatively. °á·Ð:The application of combined bilateral endoscopic minimally invasive
surgery with bone cement has proven to be an effective method for
treating multiple osseous defects in the sigmoid sinus/jugular bulb
region. The transverse sinus sign or occipital sinus stenosis is not the
primary cause of PT, and successful elimination of PT symptoms can be
achieved by repairing osseous defects in the jugular bulb region,
avoiding the need for intravascular interventions. |
