title: Symposium on sensorineural hearing loss in children: early detection and intervention. Histopathology of sensorineural hearing loss in children.
abstract: It is important to determine clinically the etiology of any sensorineural hearing loss in a child, if this is at all possible. With continued examination of the pathologic changes in the temporal bone, one can correlate the clinical and histopathologic findings. By use of this combined knowledge, one can diagnose and evaluate more thoroughly a child with such a hearing loss and also better counsel the child's parents.
