Abstract

Three hundred and sixty-three outpatients with tinnitus in 1987 were studied.Sex distribution was approximately equal in both sexes. The incidence of tinnitus increased with age and the greatest incidence was the sixth decade.About the side of tinnitus, tinnitus of one ear accounted for 62.5% (1t>rt), tinnitus of bilateral ear accounted for 36.4%, and tinnitus originating from head accounted for 1.1%.According to our classification of primary diseases, tinnitus with presbyacusis and nohearingloss tinnitus acounted for 40-50%.
