pubmed:abstractText
Three different histological techniques (scanning electron microscopy, phase contrast microscopy and light microscopy) were used to examine the organ of Corti after a damaging noise exposure. In the region of maximal injury, all outer hair cells were missing 1-2 h after the exposure had ended. Degenerated hair cells are eventually replaced by phalangeal scars. However, in these short-term recovery ears, a series of holes which were the exact size and shape of the missing outer hair cell apices were found in the reticular lamina. These holes may provide a communication route between the endolymphatic space and the fluid spaces of the organ of Corti for a period of time following a damaging noise exposure. The noise-related degeneration of supporting cells, nerve fibers and even some sensory cells may be secondary to contamination of the fluid spaces with potassium-rich endolymph.
