Intravital microlesions in the human otic capsule. Detection, classification and pathogenetic significance revisited

Key Points

• Microlesions in the otic capsule may influence auditory function and inner ear health, indicating important implications for treatment.
• The detailed classification of these microlesions provides insights for clinicians working with ear disorders and surgeries.
• Detection methods are pivotal for early identification of otic lesions, potentially guiding therapeutic interventions.
• The study underscores the need for further investigation into the pathogenesis of these lesions for better clinical outcomes.
