PURPOSE: Meniere's disease (MD) is a disabling condition with symptoms, such as hearing loss, dizziness, and tinnitus. Surgery is the last resort option for managing MD when other treatments are not effective. Surgical labyrinthectomy (SL) is less commonly performed than vestibular neurectomy or chemical labyrinthectomy. We sought to assess the efficacy and safety of the SL procedure.
METHODS: A retrospective study was carried out involving a cohort of 25 patients with disabling and drug-resistant MD, who underwent SL performed by the same surgeon at University Hospital UCL Namur between 2009 and 2019. All patients considered their hearing non-functional and requested a radical therapeutic option. We compared subjective and objective measures before and after surgery, retrieved from patient medical records.
RESULTS: The difference between the Dizziness Handicap Inventory scores before and after surgery was statistically significant (p < 0.01). 81% of patients being satisfied with surgery. No post-operative complications occurred. Following SL, 14 patients evolved well, both subjectively and clinically, without any further vestibular workup required, which was offered to the other patients. All had a total deafness on the operated side, as expected, while four benefited from multidisciplinary rehabilitation because of persistent tinnitus. The scientific literature on this topic was reviewed, compared, and discussed.
CONCLUSIONS: Based on our results, SL represents an efficient and safe approach to achieve vestibular deafferentation in patients with unilateral, disabling, and treatment-resistant MD, with non-functional hearing.
