Preface
In the following pages selected aspects of cochlear anatomy are described and illustrated using images obtained from material prepared in the authors’ laboratory over the course of the last several decades. Much of that material was processed for temporal bone microdissection. However, in addition to photographs from dissections, photomicrographs from conventional temporal bone cross-sections and scanning electron microscopy are included. Taken together, these methods offer a perspective on inner ear anatomy not often found in the available literature on temporal bone morphology. Findings from human temporal bone studies relevant to cochlear implantation are emphasized, and comments relating to the functional and/or clinical significance of the anatomic observations are provided. Temporal bone microdissection has a long history of use in research on inner ear anatomy and pathology and was in fact employed in the first postmor
