IHC=inner hair cells, OHC=outer hair cells, Stria=strial atrophy, Neurons=cochlear neurons, EL=endolymph, PL=perilymph, IV=inferior division of vestibular nerve, SV=superior division of vestibular nerve, VN=vestibular nerve, Co=cochlear nerve.

Rating scale for IHC, OHC, Stria, and Neurons: +++ = 67 – 100% loss, ++ = 34 – 66% loss, + = 1 – 33% loss, − = 0% loss

For hydrops and precipitate: + indicates presence, − indicates absence
