The round window membrane is considered the most likely pathway from the middle to the inner ear. Various substances placed in the middle ear have been seen to pass through the round window membrane. Once toxic substances or inflammatory mediators such as cytokines and nitric oxide enter the inner ear, various inner ear sequelae such as labyrinthitis, endolymphatic hydrops, sensorineural hearing loss or more insidious diseases can occur.
圆窗膜被认为是从中耳到内耳最可能的通路。已观察到置于中耳的各种物质可穿过圆窗膜。一旦有毒物质或炎性介质如细胞因子和一氧化氮进入内耳,就可能发生各种内耳后遗症,如迷路炎、内淋巴积水、感音神经性听力损失或更隐匿的疾病。
