Abstract
The neuro-otological findings are described in 3 unrelated patients who had xeroderma pigmentosum. All had impaired hearing. Routine audiometric assessment suggested that the hearing loss was of cochlear origin; brainstem evoked potentials in 2 patients and electrocochleography in 1 support this conclusion. Two adult patients had a supranuclear ophthalmoplegia. Vestibular function was mildly deranged and visual suppression of the vestibulo-ocular reflex impaired.Entities:
