The Labyrinthine Artery

The labyrinthine artery supplies the inner ear structures responsible for hearing and balance. It usually arises from the anterior inferior cerebellar artery, although it may branch directly from the basilar artery. It enters the internal acoustic meatus alongside the facial and vestibulocochlear nerves. Because it is an end artery with no significant collateral supply, blockage can lead to sudden hearing loss, vertigo, or balance disturbances. Its delicate course highlights the vulnerability of inner ear blood supply. The Labyrinthine Artery Diagram - Chart - diagrams and charts with labels.
