This patient has profound mixed hearing loss and blue sclerae. Who can tell me what’s going on? What is this radiographic sign called?

@LauerLab Thank you for all the support along the way!!

[Bryan Ward @WardensMD]

This is one I’m pretty happy with. Helps sort out something in #meniere disease and leads to new hypotheses.

It is exciting to see progress in the treatment of human papillomavirus-related (HPV+) #HeadAndNeckCancer (HNSC) exemplified by the incredible E3311 de-escalation trial led by @RobertFerrisMD. While we see excellent outcomes with HPV+ HNSC, why do some of these tumors recur?

The history of #Meniere's Disease is rich with surgical innovation, paralleling otology developments and a lesson on how scant evidence can inspire surgeons to innovate. (Also, first pub inspired by this twitter feed. Thanks @dxieMD!) #histmed https://t.co/eo3NqdqI36

He served as a voluntary civilian surgeon for Austria. Upon his capture, he was charged with directing the otolaryngology service for Austrian POWs AND their captors. Here is a telegram he sent in thanks, signed "dr. Bárány, prisoner of war”.

Robert Bárány, famed Austro-Hungarian otologist, won the 1914 @NobelPrize in Medicine for his research in vestibular caloric response--but only formally received the award in 1916. Why? He was being held captive as a WWI POW in Turkistan! #histmed #BaranySociety #NobelPrize

Check out the revolutionary study by German physiologist Wilhelm Steinhausen at doi: 10.1007/BF01754806 and the English translation of his contributions to peripheral vestibular physiology by Straka, Paulin, and Hoffman at doi: 10.3389/fneur.2021.676723

Classical theories of semicircular canal macromechanics largely ignored the role of the cupula due to its shrinkage during histological fixation. Only in 1931 was cupula displacement observed in response to rotatory/caloric stimulation (in situ). #physiology #Neurotology

Vertigo and dizziness from vestibular migraine is very disabling but unfortunately, many insurers and even some physicians (who assess applications for insurers) don’t understand just how disabling these symptoms are

Prosper Meniere had only first described MD in 1861, and this was an unpopular diagnosis at the time. Check out this interesting paper by neurotologist and van Gogh enthusiast I.K. Arenberg (DOI: 10.3109/00016489109128048). #histmed #vanGogh #HistoryInMénièresDisease

Down the rabbit hole with van Gogh: the post-Dutch Impressionist's infamous, self-injurious "ear incident" may have been a result of intolerable tinnitus, secondary to Meniére's disease (MD), with vertigo (“avoir le vertige”), tinnitus, and possible nystagmus +/- oscillopsia.
