Familial Progressive Sensorineural Deafness
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1969DEAFNESS resulting from genetic causes may be present at time of birth (congenital) or may develop subsequent to birth (acquired). In congenital deafness the end-or-gan of hearing may not develop in the first trimester (aplasia). It is also conceivable, but not proven, that a fully differentiated sense organ may degenerate during the second and third ...

Sensorineural hearing loss in neurobrucellosis
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1993AbstractA case of neurobrucellosis presenting to the otologist with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) as the predominant clinical feature is reported. The diagnostic features and treatment options are discussed and the need for prolonged combination treatment to prevent relapse and further deterioration of hearing stressed. SNHL in neurobrucellosis has

Sensorineural Impairment in Unilateral Otosclerosis
Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1975Audiometric findings were evaluated in a group of patients with clinical unilateral otosclerosis. A comparison was made between bone conduction threshold in the better hearing ear and the ear with the mixed hearing loss. Over 50% of the patients had a significant elevation in the bone conduction thresholds in the ear with clinical otosclerosis as ...

HISTOPATHOLOGY OF PROFOUND SENSORINEURAL DEAFNESSa
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1983In all the cases of profound deafness that we examined, the sensory epithelium along the basilar membrane had severely degenerated. However, ganglion cell counts and peripheral fiber estimates demonstrated a high degree of variability when analyzed with respect to the state of the organ of Corti or the etiology of the original cochlear disorder.

Hereditary progressive sensorineural deafness
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1976Progressive sensorineural hearing losses found in seven members of three families are presented. Genetic transmission patterns in the study appeared to be autosomal dominant in two families and recessive in one family. The common audiological features of these cases include bilaterally symmetrical audiometric configuration and fairly good speech ...

ABSTRACTHearing losses in children are disabling and frequently unrecognized. Children with persistent uncorrected hearing impairment are at high risk for speech and language delays, behavioural problems, and socialization and learning difficulties. Although most hearing impairment in childhood is conductive in type. about 1 in 1000 Australian children

Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss
Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1996Approximately 4000 new cases of sudden hearing loss (SHL) occur annually in the United States, and 15,000 annually worldwide, accounting for approximately 1% of all cases of SHL. Although prevalence studies do not necessarily distinguish between idiopathic and acquired SHL, most cases of spontaneous SHL have no identifiable cause.

Epidemiology of Sensorineural Hearing Loss
International Journal of Audiology, 1973The paper is based on the author's epidemiological studies of sensorineural hearing loss in Ghana, Jamaica, Nigeria and the United Kingdom. Basically, the method has been one of direct examination of random or total samples. Such a study is more difficult than a study of conductive hearing loss because there is no qualitative difference between ...

Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss
Medical Clinics of North America, 1991Hearing is one of our most important senses and its sudden loss can be frightening and frustrating for the patient and his or her physician. Despite multiple reports of sudden SNHL over the years, we still do not have a universally accepted definition.

Sensorineural hearing loss and mumps
British Journal of Audiology, 1987Out of 360 children with hearing loss seen during 1 year in the Haringey Audiology Unit, 21 had unilateral, sensorineural hearing loss. Sixteen had previously been checked to have no loss. It is strongly suspected that the hearing loss resulted from mumps, and therefore the disability in such children could be prevented by introducing mumps vaccination
