  • Title: Cochlear neural degeneration without hair cell loss in two patients with aminoglycoside ototoxicity.
    Author: Hinojosa R, Lerner SA.
    Journal: J Infect Dis; 1987 Sep; 156(3):449-55. PubMed ID: 3611831.
    Abstract:
    The temporal bones of two young adults who developed auditory toxicity during or shortly after a course of aminoglycoside therapy were examined by using light microscopy. Although the organs of Corti were essentially normal, the total number of cochlear ganglion cells was about one-third lower than the number observed in comparable subjects with normal hearing.
