Q

most common isolated congenital anomaly

A

disconnection between incus and stapes, long process of incus absent or abnormal, and super structures of stapes is malformed
bones don’t fuse together
cause congenital conductive HL

A

starts at 7 weeks (1 turn)
10-11 weeks 2 1/2 turns

Q

how many rows of hair cells exist initially

A

Q

3 stages of HC innervation

A
  1. before onset of function- IHC receive efferent and afferent OHC only efferent
  2. onset of function
  3. adult like- IHC strong afferent innervation and OHC receive large efferent connections

18
Q

atresia

A

complete closure of ear canal

19
Q

how much of a dB loss can a complete ear canal closure cause

A

50-60dB conductive hearing loss

20
Q

microtia

A

congenital birth defect of outer ear due to incomplete development of 1st and 3nd brachial arches before 5th week of gestation

21
Q

what are the syndromes associated with microtia

A

treacher collins
fraser
nager
goldenhar

22
Q

satyr ear

A

pinna comes out to sharp point and forward fold
- deficiency in 4th hillock during 6th and 8th week gestation
- potential localization and conductive loss issues

23
Q

stahl ear

A

abnormality in superior crus on antihelix
- may have 3rd crus
less elastic cartilage

24
Q

lop ear

A

folding down of helix and scapha

25
question mark ear
cleft between helix and lobe - defect between 5th and 6th hillocks - occurs b.w 6th and 8th week gestation
26
Darwin tubricle
small growth at superior point of pinna due to small growth in position of 5th hillock - autosomal dominant trait
27
what % of congenital deafness is attributable to recessive genetic factors
80-85%
28
what % of congenital deafness is attributable to dominant genetic factors
10%
29
what % of congenital deafness is attributable to mitochondrial mutations
5%
30
what % of congenital hearing loss is syndromic vs non-syndromic
30% syndromic 70% non-syndromic
31
waardenburg syndrom
-moderate-profound hearing loss -2 different coloured eyes or unusally bright blue -white forelock premature graying - low frontal hairline - wide space inner corners of eyes
32
ushers
autosomal recessive 3-6% deaf and 3-6% hearing impaired - type I most severe Type III least severe
33
night blindness is associated with what type of ushers
Type III
34
Type III ushers hearing loss onset is when
mid teens deaf by mid-late adult
35
ushers Type II
Moderate to severe hearing loss - do well with amplification
36
Type I ushers
profound HL and severe balance issue with little oral language (sign) and rarley walk before 18 months - progress to blindness
37
non-syndromic hearing losses
COCH mutation GJB2-Gap junction beta 2 Connexin
38
COCH mutation
vestibular problem onset 15-65 years
39
GJB2-Gap junction beta 2
most common cause HL encodes protein connexin lining gap junction varying degrees of HL from mild- profound HL @ birth or shortly after
40
mumps
low incidence of HL tinnitus and fullness common hearing loss within 2 weeks of inflammation of parotid gland, rapid onset, profound loss and permanent
41
measles
was the most common cause of HL before vaccine - now low incidence if you did get it 45% deaf 55% mild to. moderate
42
what is the inutarine background noise
28dBsPL, mostly less 40HZ
43
external sounds that are attenuated in fetal environment
<250 0-2dB 1KKhZ 20dB 2-4KHZ 40dB
44
asphyxia
lack of oxygen in utero and postnatally can cause HL
