Deafness after treatment with ear drops containing neomycin, gramicidin and dexamethasone. A case report.

We describe a patient with a polyethylene tube to the middle ear who developed severe deafness and vertigo after treatment with ear drops where neomycin B was considered to be the most likely offending agent. High concentration of this antibiotic in the ear drops and access of the solution to the round window membrane in the absence of inflammatory edema and secretion may have been significant factors contributing to this serious side effect. Less ototoxic preparations should be used in patients with perforated tympanic membranes or grommets.

Unilateral sensorineural hearing loss in children less than 15 years of age.

1-10 years after the first examination, 56 children below 15 years of age with unilateral sensorineural hearing loss were re-examined with a test-battery consisting of puretone and speech audiometry, stapedius reflex tests, caloric tests, brainstem response audiometry and otoneurological tests. In no case was an acoustic tumour suspected on the basis of the test results. A small progression of the hearing loss occurred in only one ear. In no case did the healthy ears develop hearing loss during the observation period. Diagnostic procedures can in most of such cases be limited to pure-tone audiometry. Follow-up is indicated because some patients require advice considering education and evaluation regarding fitting of a hearing aid.

Heterotopic salivary gland tissue in the upper neck.

Heterotopic salivary gland tissue in the upper neck is believed to be a rare entity, only 3 cases having been reported previously. We present 2 additional cases with a discussion of the possible origin of the tissue. Tumor formation was present in all cases.

Benign fibrous xanthoma of the parotid gland: a case report.

A fibrous xanthoma of the parotid gland is reported, the literature is reviewed with a discussion of the classification of such tumours. The present case is possibly the first report of a typical benign fibrous xanthoma of the parotid gland.

A rapid and precise sequential saturation radioimmunoassay for thyroxine.

A radioimmunoassay for the measurement of total thyroxine in unextracted serum or plasma is described. The assay is performed according to the sequential saturation principle in less than 4 h. The entire assay is carried out at room temperature. An antiserum of high affinity was used as binder, ammonium 8-anilino-1-naphthalene-sulphonate as displacing agent, and activated charcoal as adsorbent in the separation step. The standard curve was linear in the range 0-136 nmol/l serum. The precision in terms of SD was nearly the same through-out this range. Estimates of within-assay SD varied from 1.3 to 4.1 and between-assay SD from 0 to 3.3 nmol/l. The recovery of thyroxine added to normal plasma was 100% and the sensitivity was 6 nmol/l. Mean thyroxine concentration in plasma from young bulls was 92 nmol/l. The assay appears to be very well suited for experimental purposes when high precision is essential.
