| Abstract: | OBJECTIVE:The development of second-side Ménière's disease in the only remaining serviceable ear is difficult to treat. We describe an intervention to control disabling disease combining a labyrinthectomy and cochlear implant to restore hearing. METHODS:Following a thorough preoperative assessment and consenting process, 2 patients underwent labyrinthectomy of the affected ear with simultaneous cochlear implantation. RESULTS:Both patients achieved control of Ménière's attacks with improved hearing rehabilitation. Oscillopsia was noted by both patients. Both patients were pleased to have undergone the treatment. CONCLUSION:Severe symptomatic second-side Ménière's disease in the only hearing ear is uncommon. We report the successful treatment of 2 patients in this difficult management scenario, by simultaneous surgical labyrinthectomy and cochlear implantation. We propose this as a potential management strategy in this rare but complex group of patients in whom all less destructive measures have failed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
