  • Title: [Anatomo-pathologic study of the temporal bone in our 4 cases of sudden infant death].
    Author: Josset P, Lecomte D, Omur M, Chabolle F, Hannoun L, Chouard CH.
    Journal: Ann Otolaryngol Chir Cervicofac; 1985; 102(6):425-32. PubMed ID: 4091391.
    Abstract:
    A new etiopathogenic theory is proposed by the authors about four cases of sudden infant death syndrome. A new histological method on the temporal bone was used applied in these four cases. Inner ear and meningeal injuries were observed. From this observation they proposed the possibilities of brain-stem injury through neurogenic or meningeal pathways. These injuries could be responsible for apnea syndrome and loss of alertness.
