Objectives: Hearing loss can be associated with a decrease in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure because changes in CSF pressure induce changes in perilymph pressure. Hearing loss after neurosurgical procedures have been reported but clinical information on hearing loss after the placement of ventri

Objective hearing threshold estimation by auditory steady-state responses (ASSR) can be accelerated by the use of narrow-band chirps and adaptive stimulus patterns. This modification has been examined in only a few clinical studies. In this study, clinical data is validated and extended, and the app

耳硬化症に対するアブミ骨手術後の骨導聴力の変化

大淵豊明,鈴木秀明,寶地信介 [他],大久保淳一,橋田光一
産業医科大学雑誌 34(3), 231-235, 2012-09-01
耳硬化症は基本的には中耳疾患であるが,蝸牛機能を反映するはずの骨導聴力がしばしば低下する.これはアブミ骨の固着により耳小骨連鎖の共振が妨げられ,慣性骨導の効果が減弱するためであると考えられている.また,この骨導聴力は多くの場合アブミ骨手術後に改善することが知られている.今回われわれは,当科でアブミ骨手術(アブミ骨底開窓術またはアブミ骨底部分切除術)を受けた耳硬化症患者6例6耳を対象とし,術前術後に …
