چکیده

X-linked mixed hearing loss with stapes fixation is a congenital, recessive anomaly. The condition is characterized by progressive mixed hearing loss, reduced vestibular responses, and congenital fixation of the stapes with perilymph gusher encountered during surgical intervention. This paper describes the audiologic history of a family with two affected male children and one carrier female child. The need for early intervention and the challenges encountered in evaluation and management are discussed.

A Case of the Vibrant Soundbridge Stapes Coupler in Patients with Mixed Hearing Loss

The Vibrant Soundbridge (VSB) with stapes clip coupler placement at the stapes head has been used successfully to treat mixed hearing loss. Coupling between the floating mass transducer of the VSB and the stapes head is technically less demanding than incus vibroplasty and is more likely to generate a positive outcome without significantly changing residual hearing or resulting in medical or su...

Among ossicular anomalies, stapes anomaly is the most common. The purpose of this study is to describe patterns of stapes anomaly and to analyze its surgical outcome with special reference to its patterns. METHODS We...

Stapes Crural Fracture without Perilymph Fistula by Q-Tip Injury

We report a rare case where Q-tip induced mixed hearing loss without perilymph fistula and demonstrate the need for computed tomography imaging with three-dimensional reconstruction where fracture and dislocation of the stapes are suspected. A 28-year-old male experienced an accidental penetrating injury by a Q-tip in the right ear 6 years previously. Temporal bone computed tomography revealed ...

Air-bone gap in patients with X-linked stapes gusher syndrome.

It is often possible to elicit the stapedius reflex in patients suffering from recessive X-linked progressive mixed deafness syndrome with stapes gusher. The presence of an air-bone gap in the audiogram and the ability to elicit the stapedius reflex are conflicting. Measurements were performed on two patients who were suffering from this syndrome, to establish whether the hearing loss was of th...
