Intratympanic steroid perfusion for the treatment of Ménière's disease: A retrospective study

Abstract. We conducted a retrospective outcomes review of the charts of 22 patients with Ménière's disease who were treated with intratympanic perfusion of methylprednisolone and/or dexamethasone. Outcomes were determined by subjective assessment of vertigo control and by objective changes in audiometric pure-tone average (PTA) and speech discrimination score (SDS). These evaluations were made at the first postperfusion visit (short term) and at least 12 months later (long term).
