Urges audiometric confirmation to avoid misclassifying low-frequency loss; leaves open prospective validation of diagnostic criteria.
What are the clinical findings and diagnostic challenges in patients with sensorineural low frequency hearing loss?
Sensorineural low frequency hearing loss can mimic conductive hearing loss and Meniere's disease, requiring careful audiological differentiation to avoid unnecessary surgery and enable appropriate treatment with hearing aids.
Parving et al. (1978) studied this question.
