本文报告四位早期因疱疹性脑炎而造成双侧听觉皮质损害的小儿。他们的脑部CT和MRI扫描显示了共同的双侧听觉皮层病变。通过行为测试、客观听力测试和听知觉测试对受试者的听知觉进行研究。所有四名患者在行为听力测试中表现出轻度或中度听力损失，听性脑干反应正常，但没有表现出完全耳聋。此外，涉及语音，环境声音和音乐的感知测试表明，所有患者的大部分听觉感知能力都丧失了。到了上学年龄后，病人便入读聋人学校或残疾儿童特殊学校。
Four pediatric patients whose bilateral auditory cortices were damaged by herpes encephalitis at an early age were studied. Their brain CT and MRI scans demonstrated common bilateral lesions of the auditory cortices. Their auditory perception was investigated by means of behavioral and objective hearing tests and auditory perception tests. All four patients showed mild or moderate hearing loss in the behavioral hearing test and normal auditory brainstem responses but did not manifest total deafness. Moreover, perception tests involving speech, environmental sounds and music demonstrated that most auditory perception ability had been lost in all patients. On reaching school age, the patients were enrolled in schools for the deaf or special schools for handicapped children.
