OBJECTIVE: To compare the differences in wideband absorbance and the resonance frequency (RF) between patients with inner ear malformations and normal control, and to explore the auditory diagnostic value of wideband acoustic immittance (WAI).
METHODS: A total of 38 patients (59 ears) with enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA), 13 patients (14 ears) with incomplete partition type I (IP-I) and 13 patients (26 ears) with incomplete partition type II (IP-II) were included. 50 normal control (100 ears). All subjects underwent WAI tests to compare the absorbance configuration and resonance frequency.
RESULTS: All the group showed lower absorbance at ambient pressure than at peak pressure in certain frequencies under 2000Hz. Under 1000Hz, the absorbance of EVA was higher than that of other groups. The average absorbance and highest absorbance of IP-I were the lowest(P＜0.05). However, IP-II and normal group had similarity on some characteristics. The three IEM groups mainly different at low and high frequencies, but not at medium frequencies. The highest absorbance of all the groups were appeared around 3000Hz. The RF of all the groups from low to high were EVA＜IP-II＜normal control＜IP-I, and the lowest was EVA(P＜0.05).
CONCLUSION: Inner ear malformations can affect energy absorbance and RF. WAI is sensitive and non-invasive to provide useful information about inner ear status and facilitate detection of ear pathology.
