Effect of calcitonin treatment on deafness due to Paget's disease of bone
British Medical Journal
|August 20, 1977
Abstract:
Seventeen patients with Paget's disease of the skull and deafness were followed for nine to 18 months. Patients who received calcitonin treatment showed less deterioration in hearing than untreated patients. Calcitonin treatment may retard the progression of deafness in Paget's disease, and further studies are indicated.
