Journal Title: Journal of Evolution of Medical and Dental Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 37
Abstract
A 40-year-old female patient presented to our hospital with complaints of hearing loss since birth. There was complete hearing loss on the right side. On the left side, there was very mild hearing loss. She was unable to tolerate loud sounds and had multiple episodes of tinnitus. She also complained of episodes of dizziness and nausea. There was no family history of similar complaints. On examination, the pinnae and the external auditory canals were normal on both sides. Bilateral tympanic membranes were intact. The patient underwent a tympanometry examination. It showed type A subtype tympanogram on the right side. This is indicative of mild ossicular chain stiffness. Mild low-frequency hearing loss was seen on the left side.
