title: Ear canal collapse: a case presentation.
abstract: The effects of collapse of the external ear canals due to pressure from earphones have been documented and discussed by several authors during the past 2 decades. This report presents a case of ear canal collapse in a child and demonstrates the value of impedance audiometry in cases of collapse of the external ear canal.
