Abstract
• A new crossed-vs-uncrossed acoustic reflex pattern has been observed in four patients with retrocochlear disorder. The new reflex pattern is characterized by a unique "uni-box" configuration. Reflexes are abnormal with sound to the affected ear on crossed stimulation only. In one additional patient, a variation of the uni-box pattern was found on suprathreshold reflex amplitude measures. We observed a large ear difference between reflex amplitude functions in the crossed condition, but not in the uncrossed condition. This observation suggests that reflex amplitude measures may be a valuable addition to threshold measures in some patients.
