Vestibular Hypersensitivity in Patients with Chronic Noise Exposure
© Association of Otolaryngologists of India 2021..
It has been demonstrated that high-intensity noise exposure adversely affects the human balance function. The Tullio phenomenon (TP) refers to sound-induced imbalance which is resulted from hypersensitivity of vestibular end organs to normal acoustic stimuli. Although different etiologies have been attributed to TP, evidence on the role of excessive noise exposure in the development of this symptom is limited. The present study aims to assess the vestibular functions in patients manifesting TP symptom who were exposed to long-term excessive noise levels. This was an analytic cross-sectional study conducted on 17 males diagnosed with TP with a history of chronic noise-induced hearing loss (TP group) and 17 healthy individuals. All subjects in both groups underwent complete otological, videonystagmography (VNG), and cervical vestibular myogenic potential (cVEMP) assessments. The most common complaint in TP subjects was vertigo and imbalance. During the VNG assessment, we found abnormal positional nystagmus and caloric irrigation (vestibular hyperfunction) results in 4 (23.53%) and 9 (52.94%) patients, respectively. Seven (41.17%) patients indicated cVEMP thresholds which were abnormally lower than the normal values ( ≤ 70 dB HL). However, when both VNG and cVEMP results were considered together, the abnormal rate reached 70.58% (12 of 17 cases). Our findings showed that both the semicircular canal as well as otolith stuctures could be affected in TP patients with a history of chronic noise exposure.
