Audiograms from a five year old accident victim with a profound hearing loss are compared to temporal bone and brain stem histological findings. One temporal bone was evaluated using surface preparation and transmission electron microscope techniques. The other temporal bone was evaluated using serial section procedures. No sensory cells were present in either cochlea. This unusual finding is discussed. Evaluation of ventral cochlear nuclei showed a 50 per cent loss of neurons on both sides.
将一名五岁严重听力损失事故受害者的听力图与颞骨和脑干组织学检查结果进行比较。使用表面制备和透射电子显微镜技术评估了一块颞骨。使用连续切片程序评估了另一块颞骨。两个耳蜗中均未发现感觉细胞。对这一异常发现进行了讨论。对蜗腹侧核的评估显示两侧神经元损失了50%。
