The decision must then be made either to terminate the procedure\u2014knowing that the patient's symptoms will probably continue or deteriorate\u2014or to repair both windows as if PL fistulas were present, risking further damage to the inner ear. From a series of 14 patients explored for possible PL fistulas, we report on 6 patients with preoperative diagnoses of PL fistula, based on history, physical examination, and audiometry. Symptoms resulting from trauma were present from 10\u00a0days to 23 years before surgery. During exploratory tympanotomy, no fistulas were evident; however, both the oval and round windows were repaired with tissue grafts. Follow up\u2014for 1 to 5 years\u2014revealed that vertigo was relieved in all patients. Postoperatively, one patient had a mild conductive hearing loss; yet no patient sustained a sensory neural hearing loss. We conclude that patch grafting of both the oval and round windows is a safe and effective method of treating suspected, but inapparent fistulas. Patient selection, surgical technique, and results shall be detailed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/01945998860953p113","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,5]],"date-time":"2017-01-05T15:17:11Z","timestamp":1483629431000},"page":"344-346","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Results of surgical repair of inapparent perilymph fistulas"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"95","author":[{"given":"G.
