Unilateral Low - frequency Sensorineural Hearing Loss (40 Cases Analysis) / 听力学及言语疾病杂志

ABSTRACT

Forty cases of unilateral low- frequency sensorineural hearing loss(LFSNHL) were analysed. The symptoms included tinnitus(87.5% ), deafness(75% ), vertigo(35%) and ear fullness(25% ). Audiome-try showed LFSNHL in all cases. The threshold difference between low frequencies and high frequencies was 26. 32 dB. The cause of LFSNHL, the relation between tinnitus, LFSNHL and endolymphatic hydrops were discussed. We hope that the diagnosis of LFSNHL should be standardized.
