Osseo-integration in Paget's disease: the bone-anchored hearing aid in the rehabilitation of Pagetic deafness
Abstract
The first report of a patient with gross Paget's disease and progressive hearing loss who successfully underwent hearing rehabilitation with an osseo-integrated hearing aid is presented. The otological manifestations of Paget's disease and the principles of osseo-integration are discussed. The use of a bone-anchored hearing aid (BAHA) in selected patients with Paget's disease can provide useful amplification and hearing rehabilitation.
