Auditory screening.

Abstract

Hearing screening is one of the most viable techniques in the health screening arena. The procedures are sufficiently valid and flexible to meet the requisite goals at any age level. The yields are easily great enough to justify the relatively small expenditures for screening programs. When one considers that the proper identification of hearing loss can create fulfillment in life that would not otherwise have been possible, it is evident that these programs should be implemented universally.

A case of congenital ossicular malformation with mild auricular deformity: embryological and surgical considerations.

A case of bilateral congenital conductive deafness with mild auricular deformity is presented, and the anomalous structure deformity of the ossicles was multi-focal in this case, and a previous report indicates that ossicular malformation in the ear with congenital conductive deafness is multi-focal when the external ear is only slightly deformed. Bilateral ossicular reconstruction with replacement of the stapes yielded satisfactory results.
