Hearing Handicap and Speech Recognition Correlate With Self-Reported Listening Effort and Fatigue.

abstract：:Several cases illustrating potential pitfalls in neurotologic diagnosis from the viewpoint of the otologist are presented. The role of auditory brain stem response testing is specifically emphasized in cases with discordant audiologic and radiographic findings. Included are one case of a "false negative" ABR in a pati...
