Abstract:
Objective To invegtigate the possible etiology,clinical characteristics,and treatment effects of post tympanoplasty full-frequency bone conduction hearing loss in the operated ear.Methods A retrospective analy-sis was conducted on the possible causes,clinical manifestations,and diagnosis and treatment of 6 cases of full-fre-quency bone conduction hearing loss in the operated ear after tympanoplasty.Results The use of diluted epineph-rine during surgery,controlled hypotension during the operation,ethylene oxide in gelatin sponges,and the exces-sive pro-inflammatory factors produced postoperatively may be associated with the occurrence of full-frequency bone conduction hearing loss in the operated ear after tympanoplasty.Among the six patients,the main initial symptom was dizziness without vertigo or nystagmus.Two cases were ineffectively treated,one case was effectively treated,and three cases were cured.Among the four cases that received timely medication,three were effectively treated.Conclusion Full-frequency bone conduction hearing loss in the operated ear after tympanoplasty is related to various factors,and the clinical manifestations of patients are atypical,often manifesting as dizziness.Timely diagnosis through pure tone audiometry and timely treatment according to the sudden deafness treatment plan often leads to fa-vorable outcomes.
