Microsurgery approaches for local drug delivery to the inner ear : Bullostomy Versus Transtympanic Injection

http://orlhealth.blogspot.com/2017/03/microsurgery-approaches-for-local-drug.html

Bullostomy
NOTE: Bullostomy is a unilateral procedure. Operate one ear of the mouse and use the contralateral ear as the control.
Place the mouse in a decubitus supine position. Prepare the surgical area at the ventral surface of the neck using clippers to remove the fur. Clean the skin with povidone iodine based antiseptic solution, and cover it with sterile drapes.
Using a scalpel, make a 2 cm longitudinal incision from the mandible to the clavicle.
Under magnification with a surgical microscope, identify the submandibular glands and separate both with forceps. Retract the submandibular glands and localize the origin of the digastric muscle and the facial nerve.
Make an incision in the origin of the digastric muscle with a scissors, and retract it ventrally, exposing the underlying inferior-medial aspect of the tympanic bulla.
Make an opening in the bulla by drilling into it with a 27 G needle (Figure 2A). Localize the stapedial artery and the RW membrane caudal to it (Figure 2B). Clean the blood from the drilled area with an absorbable gelatin sponge.
Using a 34 G catheter and a glass micro syringe, slowly inject 3-5 µL of vehicle solution (CGP-hydrogel or RL) through the bullostomy directly onto the RW niche, filling it (Figure 2C). Seal the bullostomy with 1-2 drops of tissue adhesive.
Return the submandibular glands to their initial position and close the skin incisions with 5-0 silk surgical suture. Apply a chlorhexidine-based antiseptic around the incision to avoid wound infection. NOTE: Absorbable and non-absorbable sutures could be used. Non-absorbable sutures must be removed  in 2 weeks. Silk is not recommended for skin closure since its use is associated with incision infection and local tissue reactions.
