Air–Bone Gap in Meniere’s Disease: A Case Series and Literature Review
ABG can occur in a small sub-set of the MD population. In our case series, the ABG was typically found to affect the low frequencies. Higher frequencies appear to be spared. However, a detailed history, examination and battery of objective tests are required to ensure that all other causes of the ABG are reliably considered and excluded prior to attributing it to the inner ear. The finding of an ABG in MD may be dependent on the stage of the disease. Further research is required to determine the underlying cause of the ABG and its potential applications to help guide treatment.
