Pneumolabyrinth Without Temporal Bone Fracture: Different Outcomes for Hearing Recovery
Abstract
Pneumolabyrinth is a rare clinical manifestation seen in the practice of otology. It occurs usually after head trauma with temporal bone fracture. However, pneumolabyrinth without temporal bone fracture is a very rare occurrence. When it occurs, it is usually diagnosed by high‐resolution computed tomography of the temporal bone. Therapy for pneumolabyrinth is conservative treatment or an exploratory tympanotomy. Recently, we saw two cases of pneumolabyrinth after trauma without temporal bone fracture. The patients were treated with conservative management for the pneumolabyrinth. However, the degree of recovery from hearing loss was different for each patient.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
