Brain stem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs) testing is a useful technique for the otoneurological assessment of patients with complaints of dizziness/imbalance, hearing loss, or tinnitus. The BAEP evaluation records neuroelectric potentials from cranial nerve (CN) VIII and the ascending brain stem pathways that are elicited as a response to brief auditory stimuli. BAEPs are performed in conjunction with audiology testing since conductive hearing losses as well as sensorineural disorders can affect BAEP waveform morphology and latencies. Overall sensitivity of BAEP is over 90% for patients with a CN VIII tumor, and the false-positive rate for patients having cochlear hearing loss is 12%. This chapter reviews BAEPs in the assessment of peripheral acoustic disordes and also discusses auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder and cochlear mocrophonic assessment as an additional electrophysiological method.

The Bonebridge and Vibrant Soundbridge systems are semi-implanted hearing devices, which have been widely applied in patients with congenital conductive hearing loss. However, comparison between these two hearing devices is rare, especially in the same patient. We report a 23-year-old man who underwent successive implantation of Vibrant Soundbridge and Bonebridge devices in the same ear because of dysfunction of the Vibrant Soundbridge. We provide insight on the patient’s experience and compare the audiological and subjective outcomes of satisfaction.

Proteus syndrome (PS) is a rare hamartomatous disorder characterized by mosaic overgrowth of multiple tissues that manifests early in life and is progressive. The presence of unilateral external auditory canal exostoses in a patient who is not a swimmer or surfer is suggestive of PS. However, hearing loss is not a typical feature. Here, we describe exostoses and ossicular discontinuity with conductive hearing loss in a patient with PS. The treatment consisted of canalplasty and ossicular chain reconstruction. A postoperative reduction was demonstrated in the patient's air-bone gap, from 21 dB to 13 dB for the pure tone average (four frequencies) and from 41 dB to 15 dB in the high-frequency range (6,000 to 8,000 Hz). Causes of ossicular discontinuity are discussed. Routine annual audiometric and otolaryngological evaluation should be considered in all patients with temporal bone inyolvement of PS.
