Abstract |
Objective |
To evaluate improvement in quality of life (QoL) 2years after endolymphatic sac surgery (ESS) in patients with Ménière's disease (MD), and preoperative factors for QoL.
Materials and methods |
A retrospective single-center study included patients who underwent ESS between 2015 and 2022, with unilateral MD according to the criteria of the American Academy of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery (AAO-HNS) as revised in 2015, and resistant to first-line medical treatment. The main study endpoint was quality of life, measured on the MDOQ-R questionnaire.
Results |
Thirty-eight patients were included. Mean improvement in MDOQ-R score was 31.1±24.6 points [range: −29 to 79], and was significant (P<0.001). No predictive factors were identified.
Conclusion |
ESS provided significant and lasting improvement in quality of life. However, it was not possible to identify preoperative predictive factors for a “typical” patient profile with the highest likelihood of favorable outcome.
