  1. 1. Vestibular schwannoma : Clinical, Epidemiological and Biochemical perspectives

    Författare :Christine Ölander; Göran Laurell; Per Olof Eriksson; Helge Rask-Andersen; Olafur Gudjonsson; Elina Mäki-Torkko; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Vestibular schwannoma; surgical complications; hearing; fall-related injury; proteomics; endolymphatic sac; epidemiology; Oto-Rhino-Laryngology; Oto-rhino-laryngologi; Neurokirurgi; Neurosurgery;

    Sammanfattning : Vestibular schwannoma (VS) is a slow growing benign tumour originating in the Schwann cells surrounding the vestibulocochlear nerve. Over recent decades, the incidence rate for VS has steadily increased, with greater numbers of patients with smaller tumours being diagnosed. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Visual influences on vestibular compensation and postural control

    Författare :Anna Hafström; Lund näs- och halssjukdomar Öron-; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Otorhinolaryngology; audiology; auditive system and speech; Otorinolaryngologi; Medicin människa och djur ; Vestibular schwannoma; Alcohol intoxication.; Medicine human and vertebrates ; Vestibular deafferentation; Visual-vestibular interactions; Subjective visual horizontal and vertical; Visual dependence; Utriculus; Balance; Vision; audiologi; hörsel- och talorganen;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aimed to investigate visual-vestibular interactions in healthy subjects and in patients with a well defined unilateral vestibular lesion (vestibular schwannoma before and six months after translabyrinthine surgery). Visual information is particularly important for balance control during perturbed stance. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Prognostic factors for outcome of benign skull base lesions: The vestibular schwannoma model

    Författare :Abdul Rahman Mohummad Al-Shudifat; Neurokirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :Skull base tumors; Vestibular schwannoma; Prognostic factors;

    Sammanfattning : Skull base tumors comprise different pathological entities, making establishment of management guidelines challenging. All trials to define the ideal outcome measurement which can be reflected on treatment and prognosis improvement, are not conclusive with a lot of methodological criticism. LÄS MER

  5. 4. The Human Vestibular Aqueduct, Endolymphatic Duct and Sac : A Morphological Study Using Micro-CT, Super Resolution Immunohistochemistry and Synchrotron Phase Contrast Imaging

    Författare :Charlotta Kämpfe Nordström; Helge Rask-Andersen; Göran Laurell; Claes Möller; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Endolymphatic sac; endolymphatic duct; vestibular aqueduct; Meniere s disease; LVAS; micro-CT; synchrotron phase contrast imaging; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Sammanfattning : The inner ear lies sheltered in the temporal bone and consists of basically three parts: the cochlea (the hearing organ), the vestibular (the balance organ), and the endolymphatic duct (ED) and endolymphatic sac (ES). The ES and ED are located in a bony canal, the vestibular aqueduct (VA), located on the medial side of the vestibule. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Inner ear proteomics and barriers : Clinical and experimental findings

    Författare :Jesper Edvardsson Rasmussen; Göran Laurell; Per Olof Eriksson; Helge Rask-Andersen; Jonas Bergquist; Måns Magnusson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Vestibular schwannoma; Hearing loss; Inner ear; Proteome; Perilymph; Endolymph; Furosemide; NKCC1; Fetuin-A; Complement component factor-H realted protein 2; CFHR2; Inflammation; MRI; Oto-Rhino-Laryngology; Oto-rhino-laryngologi; Medical Cell Biology; Medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Hearing is important in many aspects of life, including communication, assessing one’s surroundings, entertainment and social interaction. Hearing loss is common and according to the Global Burden of Disease Study, 5% of the global population require hearing rehabilitation (1). LÄS MER
