Summary

Meniere's disease is a common inner ear disease with an incidence of 15-50 per 100,000 population. Since Meniere's disease is thought to be triggered by an immune insult to inner ear, we examined intra-endolymphatic sac application of large doses of steroids as de novo treatment for intractable Meniere's disease.
