Abstract
⺠After deafening spiral ganglion cells become smaller within one week, before they die. ⺠After BDNF treatment cells become larger, also where cell survival is not enhanced. ⺠Morphological changes are not restricted to a subpopulation of spiral ganglion cells. ⺠Cell size changes and cell death may be manifestations of separate mechanisms. ⺠Size, circularity and intracellular density may be indicative of the cell's stability.
