Ménière's disease is a rare illness that affects anywhere from one and 1000 to 1 and 2000. It occurs in the inner ear specifically the semicircular canals hold a fluid called endolymph. Endolymph is what your brain uses as its internal compass, balance stabilizer, as well as comprehender of motion. It is an incurable disease that can only be somewhat controlled. The patient will be stuck with the symptoms for life.
No one is sure where Ménière's disease comes from. Threes are very varied in nature all agree however that is caused by pressure due to excess fluid that builds up in the labyrinth and semicircular canal's. Doctors still can't figure out however whether it is due to excess production or lack of absorption of the endolymph fluid is …show more content…

Only 40% of patients need surgery because it is considered a last resort. There's two types of surgeries destructive surgeries and nondestructive. And destructive there is a higher chance of hearing loss. It is also only use in the most severe cases. Some district of surgeries include a vestibular nerve sectioning. In this procedure they completely cut the balance nerve. This is a useful surgery for those was still good hearing in there affected ears. However this procedure is only used in severe circumstances do to complete balance loss. The surgery is 98% effective and illuminating vertigo from a patient. Another nondestructive surgery is a Labyrinthectomy. And a labyrinthectomy the hearing and balance nerves are both completely destroyed. This means the surgeries a very extreme way to get rid of Ménière's disease side effects, since you're hearing and balance would be taken away from you. However this procedure has 98% succession rate and eliminating vertigo. Then there is nondestructive surgery. And nondestructive surgery there is a much smaller chance of hearing loss and balance loss for Ménière's disease. Some nondestructive surgeries include endolymphatic sac depression and transtympanic medication. In endolymphatic sac depression. A shunt is placed inside the ear. Shunt is a little piece of material is put into your ear. It is used open up that you're more for endolymphatic sac depression.this procedure
