Shoutout to people with balance disorders

I'm currently at home and not able to work today because of a flare-up of my balance disorder (bilateral vestibular hypofunction/loss). Apparently, the flare-up is happening because I had COVID-19 a few weeks ago, and it has caused my brain to de-compensate for my lack of vestibular function. This is (according to my doctors) super common for people with this after they have any sort of illness.

Because it's not a painful condition, I think people forget how debilitating balance problems can be. The vertigo, the nausea, the blurred vision whenever you move your head, the falls, the people thinking you're drunk, the difficulty explaining your symptoms because they are super weird, not knowing whether or not you need a mobility aid because your legs are fine but you still can't walk in a straight line.

To anyone who has never experienced this, trust me when I say it's really bad. To everyone with a balance disorder, you're all legends and super cool, and you're not alone with this. To all the disabled people out there, don't forget balance disorders this disability pride month!

Gusher phenomenon and Ménière disease. An enigmatic Case report by Bonifacio F. MD in Journal of Clinical Case Reports MedicaI Images and Health Sciences

Abstract

During stapedotomies or cochlear implant placement, cerebrospinal fluid gusher was described. The recognized causes result from abnormal communication between perilymphatic space and subarachnoid space. Our clinical case describes a patient with Ménière disease that presented a gusher phenomenon during surgery. A dubious and controversial case report.

Key words: Otogenic vertigo, Ménière disease, endolymphatic hydrops, perilymph, Cerebrospinal Fluid

INTRODUCTION

The gusher phenomenon happens more frequently during stapes surgery and cochlear implant placement. Violent perilymph leakage starts during platinotomy or electrode placement and must be plugged in order not to cause sensorineural deafness. The stapes surgery is not practicable; instead, the positioning of cochlear implants is possible after the cleansing of cochleostomy; furthermore, other cases of uncontrolled perilymph leakage are described in the literature after temporal bone fracture.1,2,3This phenomenon is due to abnormal communication between perilymphatic and subarachnoid spaces.4 The connection is produced by anatomical alterations such as internal auditory canal bone fistula or the cochlear and vestibular aqueduct enlargement.5,6 Mondini cochlear malformation is a cochlear gyrus reduction in the osseous and membranous labyrinth; the cochlea does not finish its development during the seventh week of gestation. Cochlea dysplasia is often associated with fistulas between a labyrinth and the subarachnoid spaces (modiolus fistula).7,8

The cochlear aqueduct allows communication between the cochlear perilymphatic space and the cerebellar subarachnoid fossa. This structure plays a role in perilymphatic, endolymphatic, and cerebrospinal fluid flow. The fluid flow rate is a function of the fourth power of duct radius, therefore a minimal change of cochlear aqueduct radius is responsible for a change in the inner ear hydrodynamics.9 To avoid the high risk of hearing loss due to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) gusher, a proper diagnostic procedure is required before this type of surgery.

Case presentation

The 81-year-old patient reports vestibular symptoms for about 30 years with objective vertigo lasting about an hour with fullness and tinnitus referable to the left ear.

Serial audiometric examinations showed a fluctuating sensorineural hearing loss in the left ear, ranging from low to medium frequencies (Fig. 1).

Tympanometry produces a type A graft and absent stapedius reflexes. In two different hospitals, Ménière disease (MD) diagnosis was made. Cranial CT excludes malformations of the inner ear: enlargement cochlear aqueduct (ECA), enlargement vestibular aqueduct (EVA), Mondini Malformation, third-window lesion, ear semicircular canal fistula (Fig.2). Also in our hospital, after excluding other pathologies with vestibular symptomatology, definite Meniere disease of the left ear was confirmed following the Classification Committee of the Bárány Society.10,11

After ten years, audiometric examinations showed severe left pantonal sensorineural hearing loss (Fig.1). The patient describes the last vertigo from 2001 until January 2018, during a more violent crisis recurrence, with objective vertigo lasting 6-7 hours accompanied by nausea and vomiting. The first medical line (betahistine, diuretics, dexamethasone) failed to treat vertigo. Left transcanal labyrinthectomy has been performed considering untreatable vertigos, patient’s age, and severe hearing loss.12

During the intervention, the authors proceeded to tympanic cavity exploration. The middle ear appeared free from inflammatory disease and windows perilymphatic fistulas; therefore, with a microscopic vision, two windows ossification was identified. During the opening of the oval window, unpredictable high-pressure liquid leakage happened with a diagnosis of the perilymphatic gusher. The next step was to put a fragment of the temporal muscle and temporal fascia on the oval window and the round window until we verified the absence of perilymph.

DISCUSSION

The perilymphatic gusher was described in stapes surgery and cochlear implant placement. Otosclerosis result in bilateral mixed or conductive hearing loss with absent stapedial reflexes; only a few times high-resolution CT scan or an MRI is required for the inner ear studies, therefore is difficult to suspect possible gusher events.

The inner ear should be studied with radiology before surgery to avoid the risk of hearing loss.

A cranial CT scan can highlight cochlear and vestibular aqueduct enlargement, the Mondini malformation, and other forms of inner ear hypoplasia, but not allow inner ear canal fistulas.13    Several studies also argue that an enlarged vestibular aqueduct is not necessarily associated with the gusher phenomenon.14 However, there seems to be a more significant correlation with the enlargement of the cochlear aqueduct.13,15

Other studies show that an oblique plane CT scan can diagnose bone dehiscence between the basal gyrus of the cochlea and the inner ear canal.16,4 Preoperative CT scans do not necessarily investigate subtle inner ear malformations.

A retrospective study on preoperative CTs revealed that a negative result from the wrong collection in the inner ear could be associated with false negatives.17 A correct diagnosis is essential to avoid the gusher phenomenon, but a CT scan does not always help the surgeon. This study is the first reported case of a perilymphatic gusher in a patient suffering from vertigo. CSF leakage has never been described in a patient with Meniere Disease.

Among Meniere's disease therapies, there isn't a window opening. Labyrinthectomy can be used as the last step of MD treatment, but no cases of CSF gusher have been described during transcanal labyrinthectomy. More data is needed in the literature to answer these doubts.

Based on the data collected, the authors formulate the following hypotheses to explain the clinical case:

Prominent endolymphatic hydrops could be the cause of a gusher phenomenon

MD in vertigo absence if unilateral can mimic otosclerosis.

The patient could be affected by MD and an unrecognized inner ear malformation.

The MD diagnosis could be incorrect because of a malformation of the inner ear that could create a diagnostic picture similar to MD.

Conclusion

Internal ear abnormalities can cause no-standard communication between perilymphatic and subarachnoid space; these anomalies may remain unknown. Can Meniere's disease be considered endolymphatic hypertension?

THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF VERTIGO & THEIR COMMON CAUSES

Feeling dizzy or lightheaded can be a sign of many things, but it could also be vertigo. Not to be confused with feeling like the room is spinning, which is more accurately classified as disequilibrium, vertigo is the sensation that *you* are spinning. It can be accompanied by nausea and vomiting and is often triggered by a change in head position. It can be a very disorienting and uncomfortable feeling, and it can make it difficult to perform everyday activities. So, what causes this strange feeling?

Vertigo can be caused by smoking, drinking too much caffeine, or dehydration. It can also be caused by an ear infection, Meniere’s disease, or a head injury. One of the most effective forms of Vertigo treatment is chiropractic care. If you’re struggling with Vertigo symptoms, it may be time to book an appointment with our chiropractic office here in Mendota Heights.

Types of Vertigo & Common Causes in Mendota Heights

Do you ever feel like the room is spinning around you? Or like you’re on a rollercoaster when you’re just sitting still? These are both examples of vertigo, a type of dizziness that can be caused by many different things. 

There are three types of vertigo: peripheral, central, and psychogenic. 

Peripheral Vertigo 

It is the most common type. It’s caused by a problem with your inner ear or balance organs and can be triggered by head movements. You may feel like you’re spinning or that the room is moving even when you’re still. Peripheral vertigo is often accompanied by nausea and vomiting.

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV): BPPV is caused by changes in the position of your head, such as when you get out of bed or turn over in bed. It is the most common cause of vertigo, accounting for about 50% of all cases. BPPV can be treated with canalith repositioning maneuvers, which are simple exercises that can be done at home. 

Labyrinthitis and vestibular neuritis: These conditions are caused by inflammation in your inner ear or vestibular nerve and can be treated with antibiotics if they are caused by a bacterial infection or anti-inflammatory medications if they are caused by a viral infection. 

Meniere’s disease: This condition is caused by a buildup of fluid in your inner ear and can be treated with diuretics to reduce fluid buildup, motion sickness medications to help control symptoms, and a low-sodium diet to help reduce fluid retention. 

Migraines: Migraines can cause vertigo because they involve changes in brain activity that can affect balance and movement sensors. They can be treated with over-the-counter pain relievers, such as ibuprofen, as well as prescription medications explicitly designed for migraines. 

Perilymph fistula: This condition is caused by a tear in the thin membranes that separate the middle ear from the inner ear and can be treated with surgical repair of the incision. 

Acoustic neuroma: This condition is caused by a tumor on the nerve that connects the inner ear to the brain and can be treated with surgery to remove the tumor. 

Vestibular paralysis: This condition is caused by paralysis of the muscles that control eye movement and can be treated with physical therapy to help improve balance and eye movement coordination. 

Malformations of inner ear bones: This condition is caused by abnormal development of the bones in the inner ear during fetal development and can be treated with surgery to correct the malformation. 

Central Vertigo

It is less common than peripheral vertigo and is caused by a problem in your brain or spinal cord. The most common cause of central vertigo is stroke, but migraines, tumors, or infections can also cause it. People with central vertigo usually have other neurological symptoms in addition to dizziness, such as weakness, trouble speaking, or changes in vision. 

Stroke: A stroke occurs when blood flow to your brain is cut off due to blockage or bleeding. It can cause dizziness or loss of balance because it affects the parts of your brain responsible for those functions. Strokes can be treated with clot-busting drugs to break up blockages or surgery to remove bleeding areas. 

Tumor: A tumor on your brainstem or cerebellum—the parts of your brain responsible for balance—can cause dizziness or loss of ligaments due to pressure on those areas. Tumors can be treated with surgery to remove them. 

Inflammation: Inflammation from conditions like multiple sclerosis or meningitis—inflammation of the lining around your brain—can cause dizziness or loss of lead because it affects the parts of the ionosphere Raina is responsible for those functions.Inflammation cuspidate toothpick with steroids to reduce swelling.

Psychogenic Vertigo

It is caused by psychological factors, such as stress or anxiety. It can also be caused by vestibular migraines, which are migraines that include dizziness as a symptom. People with psychogenic vertigo don’t usually have other neurological symptoms. 

Anxiety disorders: People with anxiety disorders often experience dizziness and lightheadedness. This can be due to a number of factors, including hyperventilation, chest pain, and heart palpitations. 

Depression: Depression is another mental health condition that can cause dizziness. In some cases, this may be due to the side effects of antidepressant medications. Panic disorder: Panic disorder is characterized by recurrent episodes of anxiety and fear. These episodes can cause physical symptoms such as dizziness, shortness of breath, and heart palpitations. 

Stress: Stress can also trigger dizziness and lightheadedness. This may be due to the release of stress hormones such as adrenaline and cortisol. Certain medications: Some medications, such as anti-anxiety drugs and antidepressants, can cause dizziness as a side effect.

Overview of Vertigo chair Treatments

Vertigo is the feeling that a person feels he and the environment surrounding him is moving. Vertigo is caused by problems in the brain or inner ear, including sudden head movements, inflammation within the inner ear due to a viral or bacterial inner ear infection,  tumors, decreased blood flow to the base of the brain, multiple sclerosis, head trauma, and neck injury, migraine headaches, or complications from diabetes. Symptoms of vertigo include nausea or vomiting, sweating, or abnormal eye movements. Other symptoms of vertigo may include hearing loss and a ringing sensation in the ears, visual disturbances, weakness, difficulty speaking, a decreased level of consciousness, and difficulty walking.

 Vertigo is diagnosed by a medical history and physical exam. CT scans, blood tests, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and electrocardiogram (ECG) may also be performed depending on the suspected cause. The prognosis for vertigo depends on the cause.

 http://vertigochairtreatment.com/

Vertigo can be generally classified into two types one is peripheral vertigo and the other is central vertigo. The main cause for Peripheral vertigo may be abnormal conditions of the ear including Labyrinthitis, Perilymph fistula, Superior semi-circular canal dehiscence syndrome (SSCDS).

 The root cause of Labyrinthine is the infection in the inner ear of the individual.  The causes of Perilymph fistula may be due to a head injury. SSCDS may be due to a breakdown of part of a bony part of a canal that carries fluids into the inner ear.

 Central vertigo occurs due to minor/major injuries in the brain or a disease, Multiple sclerosis, Migraines and Brain tumours.

The major vertigo causes are infections in the inner ear such as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), vestibular neuritis, and Meniere's disease.

 Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common form of vertigo and is characterized by the brief sensation of motion lasting 15 seconds to a few minutes. This may be described as a sudden attack of vertigo. It may be initiated by sudden head movements or moving the head in a certain direction, such as rolling over in bed.

 Vestibular neuritis caused due to the inflammation of the vestibular nerve, a nerve in the ear that sends information to the brain about balance.

 Meniere's disease is composed of a triad of symptoms including episodes of vertigo, ringing in the ears (tinnitus), and hearing loss.

 Most of the time, vertigo resolves without treatment, as the brain can compensate for changes to the inner ear to restore someone's balance. Vertigo treatment can be carried out using some prescribed medications. Vertigo Rotary chair is a simple equipment used for the treatment.

Vertigo cure can be done without taking medications called by doing exercises namely Epley and semont maneuvers also described as vertigo home exercises.

vertigo

Vertigo may be described as a form of dizziness. It is the feeling of a sense that your environment is spinning. Symptoms of vertigo include a sensation of disorientation or motion, along with causes nausea or vomiting, sweating, or abnormal eye movements. Vertigo consists of other symptoms like hearing loss and a ringing sensation in the ears, weakness, difficulty speaking, a decreased level of consciousness, and difficulty walking.

             The main cause for vertigo is a problem in the brain or inner ear, including sudden head movements, inflammation within the inner ear due to a bacterial inner ear infection, Meniere's disease, tumors, decreased blood flow to the base of the brain, multiple sclerosis, head trauma, and neck injury, migraine headaches, and complications from diabetes.

              Vertigo can be classified into two types one is peripheral vertigo and the other is central vertigo. Peripheral vertigo can be caused by some of the abnormal conditions of the ear including Labyrinthitis, Perilymph fistula, Superior semi-circular canal dehiscence syndrome (SSCDS).

             Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the common form of vertigo and is characterized by the sensation of motion due to the sudden head movements lasting for a few minutes.

            Vestibular neuronitis caused due to the inflammation of the vestibular nerve, a nerve in the ear that sends information to the brain about balance. The main reason for the occurrence of Labyrinthitis is the bacterial infection in the inner ear. Symptoms may persist until the infection vanishes.

              Meniere’s disease is an inner ear disorder that is caused by a build-up of fluid and changing pressure in the ear resulting in hearing loss or ringing in the ears.

             Acoustic a neuroma is another cause of vertigo related to a type of tumor of the nerve tissue of the inner ear. The Symptoms for this may include vertigo with ringing in the ear or maybe hearing loss.

             Changes in the hormones during pregnancy in women, along with variations in the blood sugar levels can cause pregnant women to feel dizziness or vertigo.

             In diagnosing vertigo, the doctor performs tests to know if the patient feels any sensation of motion, which may indicate that true vertigo exists and check for signs of any nausea, vomiting, sweating, and abnormal eye movements. The doctor may ask the patient about the symptoms whether they are constant or come and go. The doctor may perform tests such as a CT scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) if a brain injury is suspected to be the cause of vertigo. Blood tests to check blood sugar levels and electrocardiogram (ECG) can also be done.

             Vertigo drugless treatment can be done by doing vertigo home exercises namely Epley and semont maneuvers. Epley Maneuver has to be performed if the problem lies in the left ear. Semont Maneuver has to be performed, for dizziness from the left ear.

Symptoms of Vertigo Treatment

Vertigo explains about the irregular syndrome of an individual feeling sudden head movements, issues in the inner ear, nausea, inflammation within the inner ear due to a viral or bacterial inner ear infection, tumours, reduced blood flow to the brain, multiple sclerosis, head trauma and neck injury, migraine headaches, or complications from diabetes vomiting, abnormal eye movements, Head ache, Sweating, weakness, difficulty in walking and speaking  ,more over decreased level of consciousness and also Meniere's disease, this disease  is a condition that combines symptoms of dizziness with occasional hearing loss.

Vertigo can be classified into two types one is peripheral vertigo and the other is central vertigo. Peripheral vertigo can be caused by some of the conditions of the ear including Labyrinthitis, Perilymph fistula, Superior semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome (SSCDS).

The root cause for Labyrinthitis is the infection in the inner ear of the individual.The causes for Perilymph fistula may be due to a head injury. SSCDS may be due to a breakdown of part of a bony part of a canal that carries fluids in to inner ear.

Central vertigo occurs due to minor / major injuries in the brain or a disease, Multiple sclerosis, Migraines and Brain tumours.

Blood pressure disorders, migraine,Stroke, heart arrhythmias and drugs intake can cause vertigo. Depression and anxiety can also trigger the unpleasant sensation and may result in head ache.It can be concluded that the main cause for the triggering of vertigo can be stress.vertigo can happen at any age, but it frequently seen in people aged 65 years and over. Vertigo can be temporary or long-term it can be vanished at any time and may reoccur.

Vertigo can be diagnosed by performing CT Scans, some of the blood tests, MRI and in suspected cases ECG may also be performed.The majority of cases of vertigo are less harmful. Most causes are easily treated with the help of prescription medication.

Vestibular system is an integral part of the inner ear which transfers signals to the brain about head and body movements. Vestibular neuronitis causes dizziness due to viral infection which lasts for a period of 15 days. Vestibular rehabilitation can be done to strengthen the vestibular system. In this treatment the patient has to sit on the edge of a table and lie down to one side until the vertigo resolves followed by sitting up and lying down on the other side until the vertigo stops. This is repeated until the person gets rid of vertigo.

Vertigo Chair is the motorized chair developed to help in repositioning the patients.In the treatment for vertigo, Vertigo chairs are used as powerful tool. Vertigo chair treatment can be carried out for the patients with most common ear disease named Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). It occurs when small crystals of calcium get in the inner ear. One may feel it when getting in or out of bed, or tilting head up.

Vertigo Rotary chair is a simple equipment that has been fabricated for the vertigo medication. It is more effective than any other medication as it treats the source problem. It can be used for treating people having travel or sea sickness and   fear of heights.

The vertigo can be cured by doing exercises Epley and semont manoeuvres and considered as best treatment in vertigo therapy.A professional physical therapist can help to deal with vertigo. Along with these the Commonly prescribed medications for vertigo include meclizine hydrochloride (Antivert),scopolamine transdermal patch (Transderm-Scop),promethazine hydrochloride (Phenergan), metoclopramide (Reglan), ondansetron (Zofran), diazepam(Valium),lorazepam(Ativan),clonazepam(Klonopin),andprednisone,diphenhydramine (Benadryl) and dimenhydrinate (Dramamine). Any of the medications for vertigo should be taken only with the supervision of the doctor.

Lupine Publishers | Idiopathic Recurrent Meningitis-A Rare Presentation of Congenital Peri lymphatic Fistula

Lupine Publishers | Journal of Otolaryngology

Abstract

Perilymph fistula is caused by an abnormal communication between the perilymph space and the middle ear. It can either be congenital or acquired. In patients presenting with idiopathic bacterial meningitis, we as otolaryngologists should have a high index of suspicion towards peri lymphatic fistula. Nowadays, with screening of newborn with Computed Tomography temporal bone , inner ear malformations have been diagnosed more often without any signs of meningitis. We here present a case of congenital perilymph fistula in a pediatric patient with recurrent episodes of idiopathic meningitis. A brief review of the literature on this entity confirms the difficulty of making a definitive diagnosis in most cases.

Keywords: Perilymph fistula; idiopathic recurrent meningitis; CSF leak

Abbreviations: CSF: Cerebrospinal Fluid; PLF: Peri Lymphatic Fistula; HRCT: High Resolution Computed Tomography  

Introduction

Congenital Peri lymphatic fistula are spontaneous leaks of perilymph (cerebrospinal fluid) into the middle ear as a result of a congenital weakness or defect in the temporal bone with no previous history of trauma and exertion. Recurrent meningitis secondary to congenital labyrinthine anomaly is relatively a rare clinical entity and its diagnosis depends on clinical, radiological and intra operative features.

Procedure

We present a case of recurrent meningitis secondary to congenital peri lymphatic fistula. 7-year-old boy was referred from pediatric department to us to rule out any ENT foci for recurrent Idiopathic meningitis. Patient suffered from four episodes of meningitis in the past and had about every six months and he recovered completely after each episode .He underwent all the necessary investigations which was found to be normal. MR imaging of brain was normal. Lumbar puncture showed picture of meningitis ,but foci of infection could not be found. He was referred to us when he gave a peculiar history URI and earache which preceded an episode of meningitis. Initially it was suspected that the foci of infection were from tonsils, for which he underwent adenotonsillectomy, despite that he again developed meningitis with complaints of ear fullness and hearing loss. Otoendoscopic findings in the right ear showed clear fluid behind intact tympanic membrane and left ear was found to be normal. Audiometry showed moderate to severe sensorineural hearing loss & Tympanometry showed B type tympanogram in the right ear. Since fluid was in the middle ear, Perilymph fistula was suspected. Myringotomy was performed. Clear fluid from the middle ear was sent for CSF analysis and was confirmed to be the same. Computed tomography of temporal bone showed defect at the junction of footplate of stapes and promontory (Figures 1-3). Tympanmastoid exploration was performed. Intraoperative findings showed clear fluid between footplate junction and facial canal. Head of malleus and incus were removed and examined for any defect in areas of attic and eustachian tube .The site of leak was confirmed and was covered with fat, temporalis muscle and temporalis fascia (Figures 4-7). Patient was in regular follow up for next 1 year and there were no further episodes of meningitis.

Discussion

Bacterial meningitis in childhood is a life-threatening infection of the central nervous system that is mostly associated with inner ear malformations and Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) leaks. Up to 33% of cases of repeated meningitis in children are caused by otolaryngologic etiologies [1] Congenital peri lymphatic fistula (PLF) is an abnormal communication between the middle and inner ear. It may be associated with micro fissures around the oval and round windows or labyrinthine (IAM dysplasia) [2]. The basic abnormality is a fistulous communication between the inner ear and the intracranial compartment as well as another communication between the inner ear and middle ear. In some cases, as in Hyrtl’s fissure, there is a direct communication between the subarachnoid space of the posterior cranial fossa and the middle ear [3]. Developmental anomaly: The otic placodes develop from the ectoderm at the third week of intrauterine life and invaginate to form otic vesicles. These subsequently develop to form the endolymphatic sac, cochlea, and vestibule by the fifth week. The membranous cochlea develops 1.5 turns at the end of 6 weeks and 2.5 turns by the end of the seventh week. The semicircular canals develop by the eighth week. The development of the inner ear is almost complete by the eighth week, so any insult during this period can produce several anomalies including congenital perilymph fistula [3]. Diagnosis of PLF, however, is quite difficult and delayed because of low index of suspicion and the main challenge is the identification of those patients that need to undergo an exploratory tympanotomy [4], there are no clinical-audiologic symptoms or radiographic indicators that can be considered pathognomonic of perilymph fistula. Hearing loss may be there which can be either fluctuating, progressive, or sudden. It can be associated with vertigo; patient may present with meningitis Establishing a causal relationship between the inner ear and repeated episodes of meningitis involves detailed audiologic and radiologic investigations [2]. Testing for beta-2 transferrin may yield results, but the only true way to diagnose for PLF is intraoperatively [4]. Choice of Imaging Modality is High Resolution Computed Tomography of Temporal bone Bony delineation is well defined with HRCT and thin slice MRI of temporal bone can highlight fluid filled communications [5- 7]. The most frequent middle ear anomalies identified in children with congenital PLF are a deformity of the stapes and lateral-facing round window [8]. Certain type of malformation of the inner ear, with spontaneous peri lymphatic fistula is seen a) An internal auditory meatus in the form of a funnel, in which the narrow part corresponds to the fundus of the internal auditory meatus. b) A generalized dilatation of the osseous labyrinth, different from Mondini’s malformation, in which only the basal turn of the cochlea, the aqueduct of the vestibule and the lateral semicircular canal are affected [9]. Inner ear malformations may involve bone defects of the stapes footplate. Rao et al. reported that 59% of cases of repeated bacterial meningitis in children were due to anatomical congenital malformations of the temporal bone [10]. Savva et al. [4] reported that persistent CSF leaks from inner ear malformations were observed in 15% to 25% of repeated bacterial meningitis cases in children [11]. Surgical exploration is required in case of recurrent meningitis. Obliteration of the fistula with temporal muscle and fascia has prevented the recurrence of meningitis. the middle ear exploration is considered to be less difficult and more reliable than the intracranial approach. In repairing the CSF leak, many different materials and tissues have been used, including temporal fascia, temporalis muscle, siliconized rubber, absorbable gelatin film, and acrylic compounds [12,13].

Conclusion

The diagnosis of perilymph fistula is controversial. The variability among patients makes perilymph fistula difficult to diagnose. High index of suspicion should be there for inner ear anomaly if a patient presents with recurrent episodes of idiopathic meningitis. Undiagnosed cases will have high mortality rate. Paediatric congenital perilymph fistula will not have classical symptoms as in adults hence early diagnosis and management is important.

Our balance system includes so many components with interdependent functions. So many conditions and factors can develop balance-related issues. The causes of balance disorder can be placed into three groups:

#1. Trauma to the inner ear or head

Traumatic inner ear dysfunction due to whiplash or falls

Benign positional vertigo

Migraine

Blood circulation disease affecting the brain or inner ear

Abscesses or infections 

#2. Damage to the central venous system 

Acoustic neuromas and other brain tumors 

Cerebellar diseases

Parkinson's disease

Seizures

Hydrocephalus

Multiple sclerosis

Traumatic brain injury

Reduced blood flow to the brain due to chronic condition or stroke 

Any condition that affects the functioning of the central nervous system can develop balance disorders. The following disease can create an issue:

Thyroid

Dehydration

Diabetes

Anemia 

Congestive heart failure

Abnormal heart rhythms 

#3. Other causes

Certain medications 

Meniere's disease 

Vestibular neuronitis

Labyrinthitis

Medication interaction (polypharmacy)

Types of balance disorder

Vestibular Neuronitis: Inflammation of vestibular nerves can develop Vestibular Neuronitis. Labyrinthitis:  Inflammation and infection of the inner ear develop Labyrinthitis.

BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo): It is also known as positional vertigo. Head injury or sudden changes in the position of the head can trigger BPPV. 

Perilymph fistula: This disease occurs due to leakage of inner ear fluid into the middle ear. Physical exertion, change in air pressure, chronic ear infection, or ear surgery can also develop perilymph fistula. 

 Note:- If you have trouble with your balance, talk to your physical therapist or doctor. They can help you to address the causes of your balance-related issues. They may also recommend physical therapy to ease the symptoms of balance disorder and prevent falls and injuries.

Fistulas can be an aftereffect of a few infection conditions or might be precisely made for remedial reasons in certain examples. Different conditions that influence distinctive organ frameworks can bring about fistula development. 

Fistulas of the gastrointestinal parcel 

Sicknesses of the entrail, for example, Crohn's infection can cause fistulas that might happen between the stomach and the digestion tracts (entero-enteral fistula), between the digestion tracts and the skin (entero-cutaneous fistula), and anorectal fistulas, for instance. Indeed, fistula development is frequently viewed as a sign of constant Crohn's illness, as it is found in portion of all patients with this condition. 

A salivary fistula portrays an unusual association between a salivary organ pipe and an opening in the mouth through which salivation is released. Injury is viewed as the most well-known reason for this kind of fistula, yet different causes (in particular, employable entanglements, danger or contamination) should be thought of. 

Gastro-jejunal fistulas can shape between the stomach and the jejunum or the center piece of the small digestive system because of a gastric ulcer. Moreover, fistulas can likewise create between the stomach and duodenum, which is a grounded inconvenience of peptic ulcer sickness known as "twofold pylorus." 

What

causes of fistula

in different pieces of the body? 

Head wounds might prompt a perilymph fistula or tear in the slender layers of the center and internal ear, making an unusual section between the center and inward ear. Wounds may likewise cause an arteriovenous fistula or fistula between a supply route and a vein. A mastoid fistula structures over the side of the head behind the ear and can happen as an intricacy of otitis media. 

An individual with serious hidradenitis suppurativa, a constant disease that influences the apocrine organs of the armpits and crotch, is probably going to foster fistulas. It happens when channels (otherwise called sinus parcels) burrow into different spaces of the human body, like the bladder or inside. 

An aspiratory arteriovenous fistula alludes to a fistula that structures between a course and a lung vein, generally because of strange vein advancement in the lungs (for instance, in patients with inherited hemorrhagic telangiectasia). Tracheoesophageal fistulas can likewise shape between the windpipe and the food pipe. 

Radiation treatment applied to the genital region might prompt a fistula framing between the vagina and the bladder (vesicovaginal fistula). Deterred and confounded work may likewise bring about a vesicovaginal or rectovaginal (for example between the rectum and vagina) fistula. In men, urethral fistula is now and again saw as an uncommon complexity of urethral and penile medical procedure. 

Intrinsic fistulas 

On the off chance that a youngster is brought into the world with a congenital fissure, a strange correspondence between the oral and nasal holes can be noticed. After the underlying careful fix is sought after, lingering strange oronasal interchanges – otherwise called oronasal fistulas – represent a regular issue that involves resulting surgeries. 

One more critical illustration of an intrinsic fistula is rectovestibular fistula, which is the most oftentimes noticed anorectal deformity in female patients.
