Abstract
Patients with appropriate antecedent history demonstrating fluctuating SNHL and vestibulopathy, failing to respond to conservative medical treatments, should be considered for exploratory tympanotomy. In the absence of any other violations of labyrinthine integrity, connective tissue grafting of the round and oval windows should be performed even if no obvious flow of fluid is observed. This management protocol is safe and effective in properly selected patients.
