    The authors present the findings in the temporal bones of a patient who suffered profound hearing loss following the administration of Kanamycin. Tissue fixative solution was injected into the middle ears immediately following death and the temporal bones were removed for further histological preparation two hours later. Serial sections were prepared in the horizontal plane and the the histopathological changes were spacially determined by graphic reconstruction.
    The most significant change was a severe loss of outer and inner hair cells of the organ of Corti. The supporting elements of the organ of Corti as well as the stria vascularis. spiral ligament, spiral prominence, tectorial membrane, limbus, etc. were normal. The spiral ganglion showed no degenerative changes and the vestibular end-organs and ganglia appeared normal.
    One of the factors in Kanamycin ototoxicity in this patient was the presence of long-standing renal failure. It is suggested that kidney and liver function tests and audiometric tests have been performed before and during periods of Kanamycin administration.

    Air conduction and bone conduction tests were performed on shipyard workers who at time of employment were 14-15 years old and had normal hearing and thereafter worked for 8-16 years at extremely noisy circumstances (over all 123-126 phon) with the compulsory use of ear-plugs. The following results were obtained.
    1) The air conduction curve and bone condudtion curve ran almost parallel to each other.
    2) The hearing picture of those with 10 years of service showed c5-dip. The mean hearing loss for those with 16 years of service was 49 db by air conduction and 36 db by bone conduction.
    3) At 2000 cps no significant decrease in hearing was noted in the group with less than 13 years of service, but the mean hearing loss for those with 16 years of service was 19 db by air conduction and 15 db by bone conduction.
    4) At 250, 500 and 1000 cps the mean hearing loss was within 10 db by both air and bone conduction even for those with 16 years of service.

    We had two cases of abducense nerve paralysis by subacut latent sphenoidal sinusitis. They were 32 years old male and 21 years old femele.
    These two cases had been successfully treated (heaed) with conservative ophthalmological treatment and sphenoidal sinus wash.
    On the basis of Authors experieme, it is considerd that early conservative treatment is one of choice in the cases of rhinogenic ophthalmologic disease of slight degree.

    Between the period of Sept. to begining of Nov. 1962, acute catarrhalic oedematic inflammation of pharyngeal mucous membrane, localized at arcus palatopharyngeus, arcus palatoglossus and uvula were observed in our clinic. Some of them had thin pseude membrane on the epipharynx or the back surface of the uvula. They were treated with the antibiotics at the department of Otorhinolaryng. of the Japanese National Railways Hospital in Osaka, especially in the Umeda branch hospital (Umeda. 54 cases in total 63 cases). The circumstance of occuring, condition, process and treatment of this disease were discussed and we have advanced that was a specific type of epipharyngitis.

    This case is that of I year old boy who aspirated a nail into his bronchus about two months ago. Radiographic examination of the chest revealed a foreign body in the left bronchus and emphysema of the left lung. The foreign body was removed successfully by underbronchoscopy under general anesthesia. The lung returned to normal shortly thereafter.

    Authors report of their experience in clinical application of 8 per cent Xylocaine spray (lidocaine hydrochloride) for attaining adequate local anesthization of mucosal surfaces of the laryngopharyn x in bronchoscopy, esophagoscopy, laryngoscopy and tonsillectomia. This agent was considered to be ideal for purposes of clinical procedures in upper respiratory way and no side effect was noted in their experience.

  • Preventive Effect of ATP upon TTS induced by Interrupted Tone (The Second Report)

    An interrnpted tone (on-fraction 0.5; tonal duration 2000 msec; 3000 cps, 95 db (SPL)) was applied to induce TTS for 10 normal ears.
    The relation between the total duration of the interrupted stimuli and the degree of TTS was studied for both ATP-applied group and non-applied group (Fig. 1).
    From these results it was found that ATP was effective to reduce the degree of TTS, and the recovery time from it.
    Authors studied also on the intraauralmusle reflex and on the intensity duration threshold.
    Considering these results, they concluded that the preventing mechanism of ATP from TTS was due to the process of time constant elamant in perceptional mechanism.

    The effect of Alinamin F 50 injection was evaluated in twenty cases of perceptive deafness, twenty cases of laryngeal disease, seven cases of facial nerve palsy and three cases of anosmia. The overall rate of efficacy was about 60%. The good results rate of efficacy were obtained when the therapy was started earlier, especially within one month. The Improvement of general physical condition as well as the improvement of local findings indicates the multiple and seconday effects of the agent. The characteristic foul-smell was not complained during and after the injection. No sideeffect was experienced.

    Developmental and histological studies of 21 human embryos (3.5mm-223.0mm CR) were made and the results were as follows.
    1) The arytenoid prominence which was an initial sign of the formation of the larynx was seemed to develop by the 3rd or 4th week of fetal life, since it was already found with epithelial adhesion in an 5.5mm CR embryo.
    2) Epiglottis was also found in a 5.5mm CR embryo as a small prominence among the primordial arytenoid prominence.
    3) Primordium of the laryngeal cavity was formed in a 5.5mm CR embryo.
    4) The ciliated cells were recognizable in a 48.0mm CR embryo.
    In tthis embryonic life, they were found not only in the epiglottic apex but in the laryngeal vestibulum and arytenoid prominence.
    In some embryos of CR 3.5mm-12.5mm, 2 or 3 layers of short collumnar cells were recognized. The free surface of these cells have a deeply stained layer, which are considered to include basal body or basal corpuscle and to be the finding of earlier stage of the cilia formation.
    Besides, another type of the ciliated collumnar cell is recognized in the basal layer. They appear on the epithelial surface according to the proliferation of the basal cells.
