Capillary telangiectasia is often found incidentally on magnetic resonance imaging and may be associated with minor neurologic symptoms, but there has been little evidence about whether such lesions are responsible for these symptoms. Here we report a case of capillary telangiectasia of the right mid pons, which was associated with the abrupt onset of tinnitus and sensorineural hearing loss. Examination of the auditory brain stem responses showed abnormalities of waves III and IV on the left and bilateral prolongation of the interwave intervals. Optokinetic nystagmus showed slight left-right asymmetry.
毛细血管扩张症常在磁共振成像时偶然发现,可能与轻微的神经症状有关,但关于这些病变是否是这些症状的病因,几乎没有证据。在此,我们报告一例右桥脑中部毛细血管扩张症,其与耳鸣和感音神经性听力损失的突然发作有关。听觉脑干反应检查显示左侧III波和IV波异常以及双侧波间期延长。视动性眼球震颤显示轻微的左右不对称。
