Correlating the site of tympanic membrane perforation with Hearing loss

BACKGROUND It is recognized that the size of tympanic membrane perforation is proportional to the magnitude of hearing loss, however, there is no clear consensus on the effect of the location (site) of the perforation on the hearing loss. Hence the study is set to investigate the relationship between the location of perforation on TM and hearing loss. METHODS A cross-sectional prospective stu...

[Conductive deafness without perforation of tympanic membrane with reference to cases of undetermined incudostapedial joint disorder].

In order to elucidate the pathophysiology of an undetermined conductive deafness without perforation of the tympanic membrane, comparative study was made in several factor with conductive deafness which has normal tympanic membrane and may be due to inflammation. Differences and similarities in the manner of ossicular damage were discussed in these conductive deafness. The morbidity rate of con...
