Paget's disease of the skull

Sensorineural hearing loss - Paget's disease of the skull Factor

Paget's disease may be localised to one bone, or may involve several sites.  Therefore, a diagnosis of Paget's disease does not necessarily mean that the disease affects the skull.  The skull is the bony framework of the head and includes the mandible (lower jaw bone).  Seek medical advice if you are unsure whether the Paget's disease involved the skull.
