Disrupted harmony of the skull skeleton: Middle ear resonance in acromegaly
Objectives
This study aims to investigate whether the middle ear resonance frequency (RF) is affected in acromegaly, which causes growth in the skull bone.
Methods
Thirty acromegaly patients and 38 volunteers were included in the study. Pure tone average scores and middle ear RF values of the groups that underwent pure tone audiometry, tympanometry, and multifrequency tympanometry tests were compared.
Results
The pure tone mean was 14.95 ± 12.13 in acromegaly patients and 5.70 ± 8.52 in the control group (p:0.18). Sensorineural hearing loss(SNHL) was observed in 16.6% of the patients. The average middle ear RF was calculated as 815 ± 179.05 Hz in patients with acromegaly and 773 ± 127.15 in the control group. (p = 0.0001).
Conclusion
This study is the first to evaluate middle-ear RF in acromegaly patients. Acromegaly-induced changes in soft tissues and bone structures impact middle ear functions. In this patient group, we found an increase in middle ear RF without conductive-type hearing loss and a 16.6% rate of SNHL.
期刊介绍:
Growth Hormone & IGF Research is a forum for research on the regulation of growth and metabolism in humans, animals, tissues and cells. It publishes articles on all aspects of growth-promoting and growth-inhibiting hormones and factors, with particular emphasis on insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and growth hormone. This reflects the increasing importance of growth hormone and IGFs in clinical medicine and in the treatment of diseases.
