title: Morphological alteration of the stria vascularis after administration of the diuretic bumetanide.
abstract: Chinchillas were given either a single injection of the diuretic bumetanide (18 mg/kg body weight) or saline-sodium hydroxide and sacrificed at 10 min, 1 hr and 24 hr after the injection. Slight stria edema was present at 10 min, marked edema at 1 hr and no edema 24 h after bumetanide. The edema began in the first cochlear turn at 10 min and spread to the second turn by 1 hr. Along with edema, marginal cell bulging, potential capillary constriction and the formation of marginal cell membranous structures occurred after bumetanide treatment.
