  1. Pediatric Hearing Loss UCLA Head & Neck Surgery Ontario Lau MD

  2. Epidemiology congenital SNHL 1-3 per 1000 per live births 10x greater for infants with 1 or more risk factor than those with no risk factors, ie 2% to 5%. late-onset and acquired hearing loss in childhood 6x higher than the incidence of hearing loss in the neonatal period 1% all children have HL

  3. Evaluation History: intrauterine infections (most commmon prenatal cause) perinatal infection, maternal drug abuse, low Apgar score (most common perinatal causes) Prematurity, NICU stay, bilirubinemia,family history. Meningitis (most commmon postnatal cause) Physical: microscopic exam; auricle, periauricular pits, craniofacial abnormalities, +/- ocular, thyroid, skin, limb exams look for syndromic cause

  4. Evaluation OAE ABR TORCH, meningitis, family hx, craniofacial abnormalities, birth weight <1.5kg, neonatal hyperbilirubinemia, Apgar <4 at 1 minutes, <6 at 5 minutes, prolonged NICU stay or ECMO or mechanical vent, exposure to ototoxic meds. Behavior observation audiometry (birth to 6 mos) Visual Reinforcement Audiometry (6mos-3yrs) Conventional play audiometry (3-6 yrs) Standard Audiometry (6 yrs+)

  5. Ancillary Tests Imaging: CT temporal bone: inner ear disorders, cholesteatoma, & osteodysplasias. CBC, lipid profile, IgM assay for TORCH (Toxoplasmosis, Other[syphilis], Rubella, Cytomegalovirus, Herpes simplex) Connexin-26 test Other tests as indicated by ddx.

  6. Causes of HL 5-10% prenatal causes (TORCH, teratogens) 5-15% perinatal causes (hypoxemia etc) 10-20% postnatal causes (meningitis etc) 20-30% UNKNOWN 30-50% genetic

  7. Acquired prenatal hearing lossCongenital Cytomegalovirus • most common infectious cause, >4000 annual cases • Incidence of infection: 1-2 cases/100 live birth • <5% develop multiorgan dx 50% of those develop HL • 5-15% silently infected infants eventually develop HL • Oto SSx: B progressive high freq SNHL • Other SSx: Cerebral calcification, microcephaly, mental retardation, hepatosplenomegaly, jaundice.

  8. Acquired prenatal hearing lossCongenital Cytomegalovirus Dx: serum anti-CMV IgM, CMV DNA from body fluid,+ intranuclear inclusions (owl eyes) in renal tubular cells in urinary sediment (1 to 2 weeks of life) Rx: Ganciclovir—little effect for HL since damage happened already in utero

  9. Acquired prenatal hearing lossCongenital Syphilis Pathophysio: transplacental transmission, 100% inoculation rate 40% perinatal death Oto SSx: frequent +Hennebert sign (aka +fistula sign) Early deafness birth to 3 yo delayed 8-20 yo. Other SSx: Hutchinson triad: abnormal central incisors (aka Hutchinson teeth), interstitial keratitis of the eye, bony abnormalities Dx: RPR,VDRL(sensitive); FTA-ABS(specific) Tx: PCN

  10.

  11. Inner Ear Dysmorphologies • Time frame: membranous labyrinth is interrupted during 1st trimester  • Etiologies: Genetic or teratogenic exposure • Classifications • membranous labyrinth ONLY (seen at autopsy) • Osseous & membranous labyrinth ( seen in CT)

  12. Inner Ear Dysmorphologies • Incidence: 20% congenital SNHL will show abnormal inner ear on CT temporal bone • Bony: Dilated Vestibular aqueduct >cochlea>SCC (as reflected by modern imaging technology)

  15. Scheibe dysplasiacochleosaccular dysplasia • Pathophysio: incomplete development of the pars inferior • Cochlea dysplasia: severa in the basal turn, lessen toward apex, or severe throughout • Saccule: collapsed • Organ of Corti: partial or completely missing • SCCs & utricle: NORMAL • OtoSSx: SNHL • Associated w/ Usher syndrome & Waardenburg syndrome

(A) In the apical turn of this right temporal bone from case 10, there is a large cystic area (arrow) in the stria that intersects in its apical portion with a hydropic Reissner's membrane (arrowhead). O, organ of Corti represented by supporting cells; T, deformed tectorial membrane; S, atrophic stria vascularis. (B) There are strial cysts (arrow) in the lower basal turn of this left temporal bone from case 2. (C) In the lower basal turn of this right temporal bone from case 8, there is a strial concretion (short arrow), a collapsed Reissner's membrane (arrowhead), and an amorphous substance (long arrow) within a rolled tectorial membrane. 2
