Patients with pulsatile tinnitus, evidence of narrowing of the large veins of the brain, and failure of prior conservative treatment will be considered for enrollment. All patients will undergo the standard of care evaluation for tinnitus by a specialist physician for diseases of the ear (Ear, Nose and Throat [ENT] physician or otorhinolaryngologist). If it is determined that the narrowing of the large veins of the brain ("dural venous sinuses") is the most likely etiology for the tinnitus, then the possibility of enrollment in the trial will be discussed. Imaging studies of the head and temporal bone will be performed in order to further confirm venous sinus stenosis as the etiology of the pulsatile tinnitus and to rule out other possible causes. Additionally, patients will answer the questions listed on the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory questionnaire.
