RESUMEN
A prospective, controlled study on the efficacy of autologous tissue seal in myringoplasty was performed. In 29 patients with dry perforations, temporalis fascia was glued with tissue seal. In 30 patients the fascia was fixed with Gelfoam balls. No significant differences in take-rate was found between these two methods.

A family is described, three members of which presented progressive deafness, of mixed type, not present at birth. The two living, mother and daughter, exhibited a Mondini-like malformation of the labyrinth. The canaliculus cochleae was delated in the daughter. In addition, a middle ear malformation was found in the mother. The findings, being unique, are discussed in the light of Brown-Farrior og Endicott's paper on progressive, noncongenital deafness, attributed to abnormally wide canaliculus cochlea.

Two brothers were suffering from perceptive hearing loss, atopic dermatitis and mild palmophantar keratoderma. There was a predisposition to atopic disease in the maternal family, and palmoplantar keratosis as a dominant trait in the paternal family. Atopoc dermatitis and palmoplantar keratoderma separately have been reported to co-exist with hearing loss, but a combination of all three has not so far been reported.

A case of Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome with conductive hearing loss due to fixation of the stapes is described. This is the second case described in the literature. However, some patients may not have been diagnosed. We suggest that hearing of patients with BWS should be tested at intervals from early childhood.
