Resumo
Idiopathic subjective tinnitus is quite an obscure otopathology for over the decades. This paper deals with the results of an intratympanic instillation of 2% Xylocaine through Grommet over a six weeks time. Patients overall compliance was 26%. We suggest this method of treatment for those who have been treated unsuccessfully with drugs, acupuncture, electrical control, biofeedback etc with not much reward. Patient is warned about impending nausea and vomiting. Tinnitus is alleviated to cope with near to normal life.
