Thirty-six patients with leprosy and 12 sex- and age-matched controls were investigated for disorders of the audiovestibular system, and vertebral artery measurements were calculated using a color Doppler ultrasound technique. Sensorineural hearing loss found to be of cochlear origin was detected in 8 of the leprosy patients. Maximal flow velocity and mean flow velocity were measured, and the total vertebral artery flow was calculated by adding flows from the right and left sides. There was a significant reduction in the total maximal peak flow velocity of the vertebral artery of the lepromatous patients compared to the controls. Doppler sonography of the vertebral artery gave useful information about some pathology seen in lepromatous patients.
对36例麻风患者和12例年龄及性别匹配的对照者进行了听觉前庭系统疾病调查，并使用彩色多普勒超声技术计算椎动脉测量值。在8例麻风患者中检测到了起源于耳蜗的感音神经性听力损失。测量了最大流速和平均流速，并通过将左右两侧的血流相加来计算椎动脉总血流量。与对照组相比，瘤型麻风患者椎动脉的总最大峰值流速显著降低。椎动脉的多普勒超声检查为瘤型麻风患者的一些病理情况提供了有用信息。
