To examine the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) and compensatory-saccades before and after complete unilateral vestibular deafferentation (UVD).
Forty patients were studied before and after surgery for vestibular or facial schwannoma using the video head-impulse test (vHIT) and multivariable regression.
Prior to UVD (median(IQR), 14(58.4) days), the average VOR-gain towards the lesioned-ear was lower than in normal for all semicircular canals (lateral, anterior, posterior: 0.69, 0.72, 0.49). One-week after UVD (5(3.0) days) VOR gains were further reduced (0.22, 0.37, 0.27), however, within one-year after UVD (171(125.0) days) the lesioned-ear VOR gains had slightly increased (+0.08, +0.11, +0.03), maximally for the anterior-canal. After UVD, the VOR gain asymmetry (gain towards minus away from intact-ear) was lower for the intact posterior-canal plane (0.56, 0.56, 0.22). For the lesioned canals, the frequency and amplitude of the first compensatory-saccade increased from 61-93% and 1.9-3.6° pre-surgery, to 98-99% and to 3.1-5.9° one-week post-surgery and remained unchanged over one-year; second saccade frequency and amplitude decreased over the same timespan.
After UVD the high-acceleration VOR for the intact posterior-canal plane is more symmetrical than the other canals. First compensatory-saccades adapt within one week and subsequently change only marginally.
Saccade compensation from surgical UVD is near complete by one-week.
研究完全单侧前庭神经切断(UVD)前后前庭眼反射(VOR)和代偿性扫视。
40 例前庭或面神经神经鞘瘤患者,使用视频头脉冲试验(vHIT)和多变量回归进行手术前后研究。
在 UVD 之前(中位数(IQR),14(58.4)天),所有半规管的病变耳 VOR 增益均低于正常(外侧、前侧、后侧:0.69、0.72、0.49)。UVD 后一周(5(3.0)天)VOR 增益进一步降低(0.22、0.37、0.27),但 UVD 后一年(171(125.0)天)病变耳 VOR 增益略有增加(0.08、0.11、0.03),最明显的是前侧管。UVD 后,完整后颅管平面的 VOR 增益不对称性(朝向和远离完整耳的增益)较低(0.56、0.56、0.22)。对于病变管,第一次代偿性扫视的频率和幅度从术前的 61-93%和 1.9-3.6°增加到术后一周的 98-99%和 3.1-5.9°,并在一年后保持不变;第二次扫视的频率和幅度在同一时间段内下降。
UVD 后,完整后颅管平面的高加速度 VOR 比其他管更对称。第一次代偿性扫视在一周内适应,随后仅略有变化。
手术后一周内,UVD 的扫视补偿几乎完全。
