Endolymphatic Hydrops
Endolymphatic hydrops, most commonly associated with Ménière's disease, is characterized by the pathological overproduction or under-reabsorption of endolymph, causing the membranous labyrinth to distend against the bony capsule. The resulting increased hydrostatic pressure disrupts the delicate mechanical coupling required for hearing and balance.
