Abstract:
:Inner ear medical therapy has been gaining increasing popularity during the last 2 decades. Despite the increased use of this therapy,basic questions regarding this type of treatment have not been answered. The authors have used a variety of sustained-release devices in the laboratory to begin to answer some of these basic questions. This article discusses the results of this work and the application and use of sustained-release devices in patients.
