“…Hearing losses are seen in 30 to 50% of patients with involvement of the skull by Paget's disease of the bone (Nager 1975). The type of hearing loss was usually found to be a mixed hearing loss (Lindsay and Perlman 1936).…”

“…A number of studies have indicated that patients with Paget's disease of the skull frequently have hearing impairment, which may in some cases be quite severe and may also be progressive (Clemis et al, 1967;Lindsay and Perlman, 1936;Sparrow and Duvall, 1967).…”
“…Obliteration of the labyrinth and sensory hearing loss are less common. Some of the features that distinguish it from otosclerosis include the later age of onset, no family history, rapid sensorineural hearing loss, tinnitus, and radiologic evidence of Paget disease of the skull (3).…”
Cystic degeneration of the spiral ligament has not been previously reported and may be unique to Paget disease. This is consistent with recent literature showing a previously unsuspected role of the spiral ligament in sensorineural hearing loss.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
