TY - JOUR PY - 1976// TI - Rupture of the round window membrane after slight head injury with flush of perilymph probably caused by large opening of aquaeductus cochleae (author's transl) JO - Laryngologie, rhinologie, otologie A1 - Heermann, J. A1 - Dammad, H. A1 - Spernau, H. SP - 549 EP - 550 VL - 55 IS - 7 N2 - A ringing deaf ear was noticed after slight head injury without loss of consciousness nor fracture of the skull. After performig tympanotomy a ruptured round window membrane with excessive flush of perilymph was found. We might rightly assume that this was induced by a large opening of aquaeductus cochleae combined with the force of inertia of the cerebral liquor and the direction of the push to the round window (blow behind the left ear).
