[Improvement of cochleovestibular function in chronic non-inflammatory perilymphatic fistulas of the labyrinth windows: cases from practice].

After a brief discussion of the problem of idiopathic sensorineural hearing loss and perilymphatic fistulas of the labyrinth windows, audiometric tests are identified that are informative for the preoperative diagnosis of the latter. Taking into account the own results of surgical treatment, attention is drawn to the feasibility of a wider use of exploratory tympanotomy in cases of suspected occurrence of perilymphatic fistulas of the labyrinth windows.
