摘要
Isolated malleus fractures are an infrequent cause of hearing loss. Even more unusual is a fracture secondary to a sneeze. Here, we review the case of a 32-year-old man with the first surgically confirmed malleus fracture due to a suppressed sneeze, which was then successfully repaired with hydroxyapatite bone cement. We discuss the presentation, diagnosis, and management of this patient and review the literature on isolated malleus injuries.
