Sensitivity and specificity of transtympanic electrocochleography in Meniere's disease.

abstract：:The present study on the anatomy of the human facial nerve is based on the results of a series of gross dissections, and histological and electro-diagnostic examinations. From our findings it follows that there is a definite spatial orientation of the peripheral branches in the facial nerve trunk. The results of the m...
