Abstract in brief

The study investigates pulsatile tinnitus (PT) caused by venous stenosis and demonstrates that turbulence in blood flow distal to a stenosis can produce sounds similar to the patient's symptoms, which can be visualized using high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics (CFD).
In a case where a patient’s venous sinus was stented, CFD analysis showed that post-stent flow was smooth and turbulence-free, correlating with the patient's complete symptom resolution, suggesting turbulence as a key factor in PT.
The findings propose that high-fidelity CFD can help identify patients whose tinnitus is caused by turbulent blood flow due to venous narrowings, thus aiding in guiding effective treatment strategies.]
