摘要: 目的:通过对单侧梅尼埃病患者双侧耳鼓室内注射钆造影剂后行内耳增强磁共振检查,分析梅尼埃病患者患耳的膜迷路积水与听力学、前庭检查结果的相关性,同时观察对侧无症状耳有无膜迷路积水。方法:收集单侧梅尼埃病患者31例,所有患者在鼓室内注射钆造影剂前行纯音听阈测试、耳蜗电图(ECochG)、颈性前庭诱发肌源性电位(cVEMP)。双耳鼓室内注射钆造影剂24 h后行三维快速液体衰减反转恢复核磁共振序列成像(3D-FLAIR MRI),对图像膜迷路积水进行评分。对患耳的评分结果与患者病史信息及听力学、前庭检查结果进行Spearman相关性分析。通过t检验对膜迷路积水健耳组和无膜迷路积水健耳组患者的年龄、病程、健耳听力水平进行显著性检验。结果:患耳平均听阈水平与耳蜗积水程度(r=0.383,P<0.05)、ECochG -SP/AP值与耳蜗积水程度(r=0.496,P<0.01)、VEMP双耳耳间峰值差异比(r=0.635,P<0.01)与前庭积水程度显著性相关。对侧无症状有膜迷路积水组和无症状无膜迷路积水组在病程[(6.7±6.3)年 vs (2.9±3.1)年]、患耳听力水平[(70.3±7.4)dB vs (52.5±3.8)dB]上有显著性差异(均P<0.05)。结论:耳蜗积水程度与听力、ECochG,前庭积水程度与cVEMP具有相关性,提示该影像学检查能在一定程度上反映梅尼埃病患者耳蜗-前庭功能水平。膜迷路积水与听力下降关系密切,但不一定会导致梅尼埃病症状的产生。病程长、患耳听力差者更倾向于发展为双侧膜迷路积水。Abstract: Objective:This study was designed to study the correlation between endolympahatic hydrops image results and auxiliary examinations by magnetic resonance imaging after intratympanic administration of gadolinium in both ears in unilateral Meniere's disease patients.Meanwhile, the contralateral endolympahatic hydrops of the "asym ptomatic" ear in patients with unilateral Meniere's was also observed.Method:Thirty-one patients with unilateral Meniere's disease were enrolled in this study. All the patients underwent pure tone audiometry, electrocochleography(ECochG), cervical-vestibular evoked myogenic potentials(cVEMP) before intratympanic gadolinium contrast agents injected. All the patients underwent three-dimensional fast fluid attenuated inversion recovery sequence magnetic resonance imaging(3D-FLAIR MRI) after intratympanic gadolinium contrast agents injected 24 hours. The images were graded in accordance with the severity of endolympatic hydrops. Spearman correlation analysis was performed between the scores of the images and results of auxiliary examination results. Meanwhile, Student's t test was performed for the significance test of the age, duration of the disease and the hearing level of the affected ears between the group with contralateral endolympatic hydrops and the group without contralateral endolympatic hydrops.Result:Pure tone average and the degree of the cochlear hydrops(r=0.383, P<0.05), the SP/AP ratio and the degree of the cochlear hydrops(r=0.496, P<0.01), and interaural amplitude difference and the degree of the vestibular hydrops(r=0.635, P<0.01) showed a significant correlation. The duration of the disease[(6.7±6.3) years vs(2.9±3.1) years, P<0.05] and the hearing level of the affected ear[(70.3±7.4)dB vs(52.5±3.8)dB, P<0.05)] showed a significant difference between the group with contralateral endolympatic hydrops and the group without contralateral endolympatic hydrops.Conclusion:Pure tone average and the degree of the cochlear hydrops,-SP/AP ratio and the degree of the cochlear hydrops, and interaural amplitude difference and the degree of the vestibular hydrops also showed a significant correlation, which suggesting that MRI image can reflect the auditory-vestibular function in patients with Meniere's disease. Endolympatic hydrops and hearing loss are closely related, but not necessarily result in Meniere's disease symptoms. Patients with longer duration of the disease and worse hearing in the affected ears are more likely to develop bilateral endolympatic hydrops.
