Labyrinthitis is the inflammation of the inner ear. It is developed as a result of the introduction into the anatomical structures of the hearing of diseased micro-organisms. Inflammation may also cause toxic life products of bacteria and viruses. The disease manifests itself in the form of hearing and body coordination in the area.
The disease is quite dangerous and requires compulsory treatment at the clinic. Labyrinth's self-raping therapy is not effective, and it can exacerbate the inflammatory process. At the K+31 International Centre, skilled loopholes are being treated with extensive clinical experience. We use the most modern medical equipment and the safest medicines.
Reasons
The other name of pathology is the inner vault. The direct cause of the painful process is the infiltration into the anatomic structures of the hearing organs of pathogenic bacteria or viral agents. Inflammatory processes cause hearing impairment, dizziness and other unpleasant manifestations.
There are many factors that may trigger the development of the internal vein:
- The progress of the average is to advance the process of inflammation;
- Internal damage;
- Infectious damage to the organism;
- Good-quality tumours, localized in the hearing area;
- Acoustic injuries: sound overloads, high-frequency sound directed directly to the ear opening.
The most likely cause of labyrinth, as evidenced by medical statistics, is the complicated mid-state. Insufficient or inadequate treatment has resulted in an inflammation of the ear. It's a form of sickness called a warm labyrinth. Labyrinth is often developed as a complication of infectious diseases of other localization. Patogenous microorganisms enter the inner ear by hematogenic means (bleed).
Infectious diseases provoking labyrinthitis are:
- Gripp;
- Parotitis (wink);
- Syphilis;
- Tuberculosis.
The inflammations are dangerous in themselves, and if they are accompanied by the inflammation of the inner ear, the treatment becomes twofold complex and long. In such cases, comprehensive therapy is carried out, the basic pathology is removed and local internal ear therapy is performed.
Infestation in the labyrinth, a structural element of the hearing body, is developing. This anatomy department is not only a hearing function, but also responsible for equilibrium. That is why the sick have dizziness and spatial orientation.
Labyrinth is localized in the area of the temporal bone and in the interior, adjacent to the drumstick and outside with a hearing opening. It's made of three parts, snails, prestigation, half circuit channels. When the inflammation occurs, all components of the internal ear are affected, which causes a very typical symptomatic.
The disease begins with noise in the ears, loss of full orientation, dizziness. Rumor's down, and loud sounds cause painful ear reactions. The labyrinth accumulates liquid (except). The most dangerous variety is gene labyrinthitis, which is accompanied by general intoxication of the organism. If this form is unfavourable and there is no timely and literate therapy, there may be a total loss of hearing.
Labyrinth classification
There are several classification criteria.
By expressing symptoms
- Acute - This form of disease occurs more often than others. The serotic labyrinth occurs suddenly, but with timely and complete therapy, it does not last more than two weeks. This form is characterized by a small local colouring of the hearing passage and typical signs of inflammation - pain, ear burning. Therapy is conservative, involving internal and external medicines. Acute dwarf labyrinthite is more dangerous and often requires radical treatment - surgery may be necessary.
- Chronic The process is characterized by lengthy time and latent symptomatic. The lack of evidence does not mean that treatment can be avoided. The inflammatory process with chronic labyrinth continues and may at any time move to an acute stage. Most often, relapsing labyrinth is the consequence of inadequate treatment of acute illness.
Prevalence of painful process
- Limited - Located in selected internal ear anatomical components and most commonly caused by secondary odor. This variety of pathology is usually accompanied by fistula.
- Distributed - Diffuse or common labyrinth covers all elements of the bone labyrinth. In some situations, even a bilateral internal vault is diagnosed, where pathological processes occur in both hearing bodies.
Labyrinth symptoms
The most characteristic sign of the disease in question is a dizziness often accompanied by nausea. The recent signs are related to the initiation of the voyage.
Labyrinth head is expressed in the illusion of the rotation of the outside facilities or the sickest. The head is spinning stronger in head inclinations, motions, sneezes and mechanical effects on the ear sink. The dizziness is related to the pathological effects on semi-district channels. With acute inflammation, dizziness occurs at different times. The recidivating labyrinthite is less dizzy.
Other symptoms of adult labyrinth:
- Increased spatial coordination, walking or falling apart;
- Slowing hearings or a complete absence of hearings in a faint ear;
- Nistagm is a trior of eye apples (no mandatory symptom);
- General intoxication (bacterial gnome labyrinth) - temperature increase, headache, weakness;
- Intensive sweating (hyperhydros) is the manifestation in the debut phase of the disease and is associated with the incubation of the bulb;
- Changing heart rhythm is reducing heart rate.
The extent to which the symptomatic is expressed depends on the cause and variety of the disease. Acute dwarf or necrotic is the most dangerous and obvious pathological forms. Often, the disease develops instantly. During critical periods, patients have strong dizziness (to the extent that they cannot move or move their head), face colour changes, bullets slow (or increase).
In the labyrinth caused by turtle damage, the labyrinth is often collated with blood. The bone trauma of the whiskey may cause the ferry (temporary paralysis) of the lyricane: the patient becomes unable to control the muscles of one half of the face.
Complications
The most dangerous complications:
- Extension of the gene process to all ear anatomy structures;
- Necrotic process (clothing extinction);
- Unpleasant loss of hearing;
- The negligence of the lungs;
- Mastoidit - infiltration into the tissue of the temporal bone;
- Petrositis is the whining of the bone of the skull.
Spreading the pathological process into the skull can cause fatal complications - meningitis, dwarf brain abscess.
Diagnostics
The diagnosis of the disease is carried out by an orthorizing doctor (LOR), sometimes by a neurologist or an infectious counsel. The detection of the disease begins with an external examination of the patient and a detailed anaemia based on complaints from the patient and other information.
The following hardware and laboratory techniques are used to diagnose:
- The excavation is an endoscopic examination of the hearing passage;
- Audiometrics - hearing test and patient sensitivity to sound waves;
- Vecibulometers - Testing of the ventilation machine;
- X-ray;
- Electronistagmography is the procedure necessary to differentiate the dizziness at labyrinth from a similar symptom caused by the CNS defeat;
- CT and MRI (by testimony);
- Blood sample.
A laboratory bacteriological study is commissioned to identify bacteria vectors.
Labyrinth treatment
The vocational treatment of labyrinth at Clinic K+31 is based on detailed diagnostics. The choice of therapy methods depends on the variety and causes of the disease. Depending on the ethology of the inflammatory process, either anti-viral or anti-bacterial drugs are appointed.
Anti-inflammatory medications that eliminate pain are mandatory, oppress substances that support painful processes. Sometimes anti-hystamine drugs are used with anti-aircraft effects, stereoid and sedatives that reduce nervous inducement.
The saline interior can be cured with ambulatory. Heavy forms of labyrinth (black, diffuse, non-crotic) require hospitalization. In some clinical situations, radical therapy, surgery, is the only way to effect.
Speedy intervention:
- The risk of irreversible hearing impairments;
- Progressive gene labyrinthite;
- Combination of olita and inflammation in the bones of the skull;
- Direct risk of penetration into the brain.
The operation is assigned where conservative therapy is not effective. Clinic K+31 uses the most modern, low-invasive surgery techniques. The goal of doctors is to address the danger in the most efficient and safe way.
At the time of intervention, the affected area is sanctioned. During the procedure, the gene is removed and the inner half of the ear labyrinth is cleaned. If the disease is accompanied by an attack on the bone structures, both practicing and mastoidotomy (or autopsy of the pyramid of the invisible bone).
During the rehabilitation phase, hearing and maintenance procedures are under way. If necessary, a bulgeic implant is installed, an electronic machine is placed in the snail that stimulates the hearing nerve and provides a sound acceptance process.
Doctors at the K+31 International Centre strongly advise specialists on any signs of inflammatory processes in their ears. Timely diagnosis and adequate treatment will help you maintain hearings and avoid other dangerous complications of LAW.
