Argon and carbon dioxide lasers can cause heat shrinkage of the membranous labyrinth without injury to hearing. The argon laser can penetrate the membranous labyrinth and cause destruction of targeted vestibula special sensory epithelium also without injury to hearing. Consequently, these lasers have been used successfully in two treatment techniques for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, which are discussed in detail. The early techniques for laser assisted resection of the pars superior portion of the inner ear with hearing preservation are discussed.
氩激光和二氧化碳激光可引起膜迷路热收缩而不损伤听力。氩激光可穿透膜迷路并导致目标前庭特殊感觉上皮破坏,同样不损伤听力。因此,这些激光已成功应用于两种良性阵发性位置性眩晕的治疗技术,将对其进行详细讨论。还将讨论早期保留听力的激光辅助内耳上半部分切除术的技术。
