Vestibular dysfunction causing instability in aged patients.

abstract：:In experimental autoimmune labyrinthitis, we found that the guinea pigs sensitized with bovine inner ear antigen (IEAg) developed cellular infiltration within the endolymphatic sac (E. sac). In this study, we investigated the distribution of immune mediated cells within bony vascular channels. The channels, which are ...
