Of these patients, 27 cases had Mondini malformation and 31 control cases had no inner ear malformations (IEMs). Intraoperative EABRs evoked by electrical stimulation at the round window niche (RWN) and round window membrane (RWM) were recorded.ResultsPatients with Mondini malformation showed significantly lower EABR extraction rates than those with no IEMs did. However, for patients who showed EABRs, no significant difference in EABR thresholds, wave III (eIII) latencies, wave V (eV) latencies or eIII–eV latency intervals was found between two groups.ConclusionThe physiological functions of the peripheral auditory system in patients with Mondini malformation may divide into opposite extremes, as revealed by a robust EABR and the absence of the EABR, respectively. The auditory conduction function should be objectively and individually evaluated for patients with Mondini malformation by the EABR.
