Etiological Factors and Audiological Evaluation of Children with Congenital Unilateral Hearing Loss

Öz:
Objectives: The aim of the present study is to evaluate the audiological, radiological, and etiological interms of clinical findings relating to babies and children with congenital unilateral hearing loss.Materials and Methods: Audiometric tests, tympanometric and acoustic reflex measurements,otoacoustic emission tests, and auditory brainstem response assessments were conducted. Twenty-ninebabies and children (13 F ;16 M) diagnosed with congenital unilateral hearing loss, between the ages of3–87 months, were included in this study. Results: Of these patients, 65.5% (n:19) were diagnosedwith sensorineural hearing loss and 34.5% (n:10) with conductive hearing loss. Of the subjects withsensorineural hearing loss, 57.9% were diagnosed with profound hearing loss. Of the subjects withconductive hearing loss, 7 of the 10 (70%) had been diagnosed with microtia. Of the patients withconductive hearing loss, all those who had received CT scans were diagnosed with ossicular chainmalformations. The most frequent risk factor for sensorineural hearing loss is intermarriage (26.3%),whereas the most frequent risk factor for conductive hearing loss is craniofacial anomalies (30%).Conclusion: The interdisciplinary work in otology, audiology, and radiology is essential for earlydiagnosis and effective treatment of congenital unilateral hearing loss cases.
