What is the treatment for perilymphatic fistula?
A specialized interdisciplinary team of professionals is necessary to treat all of the issues associated with perilymphatic fistula. This group of individuals should include an Otologist or Otolaryngologist, an audiologist, and possibly a vestibular rehabilitation expert. In some instances, evaluation for potential surgical exploration to make the diagnosis and to provide treatment is recommended. Other times, conservative therapy allows resolution of the problem. The California Ear Institute is a leading global center for otological, otolaryngological and audiological treatment.Dr. Joseph Roberson, a board certified neurotologist, has performed thousands of successful hearing related surgeries, including many on patients whose hearing impairment is the result of perilymphatic fistula.
