It is a focus of bone less dense than the normal capsule which it replaces. It is true that in certain stages of this lesion the bone may become approximately as dense as the capsule which it replaced, but in its active stage it is far less dense.

The first objective of the mastoid surgeon should be eradication of the disease. We would naturally assume that this has been accomplished before any reconstructive surgery is performed. In achieving the goal of disease removal, it is inevitable in some cases that varying amounts of the posterior osseous canal wall must be removed, creating a mastoid cavity, which, in the opinion of many otologists, is a deformity and should be reconstructed.

However, epineural biopsies—taken at decompressions—have failed to reveal edema or other lesions. The nerve itself was observed to bulge through its entire intratympanic course. Idiopathic Bell's palsy often shows epidemiologic features and sometimes follows viral infections. Diabetes, especially latent diabetes, and arteriosclerosis are often associated with Bell's palsy—and could account for hemorrhages reported at the geniculate ganglion region. Bell's palsy is probably not one pathological entity—among its plausible causes are viral infections and vascular assaults both above the tympanic part of the facial nerve. The classical entrapment theory still awaits confirmation especially as myelin bulging is a normal phenomenon which becomes more pronounced in reaction to various injuries which are not necessarily local intratympanic ones.","PeriodicalId":8315,"journal":{"name":"Archives of otolaryngology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1972-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82327939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
