Résumé

Cet article donne un aperçu des effets aigus et chroniques du bruit sur l'oreille et sur l'audition. Des observations anatomo-pathologiques et physiologiques sont comparées aux dégâts fonctionnels auditifs consécutifs à une surstimulation acoustique.

Zusammenfassung

Die vorliegende Arbeit gibt einen kurzen Überblick über die hauptsächlichen Ohrschäden, welche durch eine akute oder chronische Lärmexposition verursacht sind. Im besonderen werden die durch akustische Traumatisierung hervorgerufenen funktionellen Hörstörungen mit anatomopathologischen und pathophysiologischen Befunden in Beziehung gesetzt.

Summary

A review of the main effects of noise exposure on the ear is presented: anatomical, histological and pathophysiological aspects of ear damage are compared with functional impairements of hearing following acute and chronic acoustic overstimulation.
