The present study was specifically designed to ascertain the effect that otoneurosurgical or neurosurgical approaches may have on the contralateral ear. 18 patients suffering from different histologic lesions were examined. Pure-tone audiometry was performed before and after surgery each postoperative day up to the fourteenth day. The audiograms were abnormal after surgery in all but one of the patients tested. This hearing loss was transitory and the recovery occurred completely within 3 months. These outcomes suggest that the hearing loss was linked to a loss of cerebrospinal fluid.
本研究专门设计用于确定耳神经外科或神经外科手术方法可能对侧耳产生的影响。对18例患有不同组织学病变的患者进行了检查。在术后直至第14天的每一天,于手术前后进行纯音听力测定。在所有接受测试的患者中,除1例之外,术后听力图均异常。这种听力损失是暂时的,并且在3个月内完全恢复。这些结果表明,听力损失与脑脊液流失有关。
