Paget’s Disease (Osteitis Deformans)
摘要
Paget’s disease of bone (PDB) usually affects older people. In some cases, it affects the bones of the skull and can cause hearing loss, tinnitus, or disequilibrium. If your doctor suspects PDB, they may check a CT or MRI, as well as tests of hearing and balance. Treatment with medication (such as a bisphosphonate, which is a pill) is sometimes tried. In some cases, an ENT surgeon may consider a surgery for the ear.
