A sensorineural component in XXXX .

@entity2319 @entity1 @entity2172
Traditionally, it has been accepted that conductive @entity2319 involves a breakdown in the mechanical conduction of sound, whilst the cochlea remains unaffected. Over a ten year period, it was noticed that a number of @entity1 , mainly @entity1 , displayed a mild, high-tone sensorineural component to their conductive loss, whereas others tested under identical conditions with parallel etiologies did not. A sample of 80 @entity1 with @entity2172 and sensorineural involvement was selected from Prince Henry's Hospital and Alfred Hospital, Melbourne, and was compared with 80 @entity1 with the same histories, but whose audiograms did not display any sensorineural involvement. The results of this study indicate a need for further research into: 1. The establishment of an internationally acceptable terminology. 2. Early detection of @entity2172 . 3. Medical/surgical management. 4. The effects on hearing, caused by fluctuating nature of @entity2172 . 5. Educational and social management.
