Description

In order to study the electrophysiological features of vibration syndrome, so-called white wax disease, 37 patients (74 ears) with white wax disease and normal hearing controls (19 ears) were examined by EcochG and ABR.<br>In EcochG, N1-latency and N1-amplitude were measured and it was found that there was no significant differencies between the patients and controls.<br>In ABR, I-V wave latencies were measured.<br>Both IV wave latency and V wave latency of the patients increased as compared with those of controls, which suggested that there was some CNS lesion in patients with white wax disease. There were some neurootological reports suggesting the possibility of the existence of CNS lesion in white wax disease. The present report suggested its possibility which was proved electrophysiologically.
