[Latency of the acoustic evoked stapedius reflex and its clinical significance].
We measured the mean latency of the stapedius reflex by normal listeners. We observed a prolongation of the latency by patients with operative and histological confirmed neurinoma of the VIII. nerve. Even if the measured stapedius reflex latency considerably varies, this method represents, any way, an important support to BERA to discover tumours of the cerebello-pontine angle.
