A battery of audiological and vestibular function tests have been performed in 72 cases of confirmed hypothyroidism. The severity of hypothyroidism was graded as mild, moderate or severe depending upon serum protein-bound iodine estimation. The incidence of hearing impairment, tinnitus and vertigo was correlated with the severity of the disease process. The site of lesion causing sensorineural hearing impairment in 25 cases was pinpointed audiologically.
对72例确诊的甲状腺功能减退症患者进行了一系列听力学和前庭功能测试。根据血清蛋白结合碘的测定结果，将甲状腺功能减退症的严重程度分为轻度、中度或重度。听力障碍、耳鸣和眩晕的发生率与疾病进程的严重程度相关。通过听力学方法确定了25例感音神经性听力障碍患者的病变部位。
