Yes the result from a lesion on the cochlear nerve is sensorineural deafness. The result from the fusion of the ossicles is conduction deafness.

What kind of deafness can result from a blood clot in the auditory cortex?
Conduction!
What can result from a lesion on the cochlear nerve?
The cochlear nerve or auditory or acoustic nerve is a nerve in the head that carries signals from the cochlea of the inner ear to the brain. It has been empirically recognized that the cochlear nerve is highly vulnerable to traumatic stress. Hearing loss can result from a lesion anywhere within the auditory system and the problems of differentiating cochlear dysfunction from nerve lesions have received major emphasis during the past several years.
What type of deafness can result from the fusion of the ossicles?
Conduction deafness can be a direct result of the fusion of any or all of the three ossicles of the middle ear. If the ossicles cannot transmit sound vibrations properly, then they will not be received by the oval window to be transmitted to the inner ear.
Can conduction deafness result from the fusion of the ossicles?
Conduction deafness can occur anytime there is a disruption of the transmission and amplification of the sound vibrations by the auditory ossicles from the tympanic membrane to the oval window. This disruption can occur as trauma or a bony outgrowth to the ossicles themselves that would cause fusion or fixation of the ossicles.
What is the difference between conduction deafness and perceptive deafness?
Conductive deafness is when the sound waves are prevented from reaching the inner ear. It can be because of wax in the outer canal, fluid inside it, or the tiny bones in the ear have seized up. With perceptive deafness, sound waves can reach the inner ear, though it is a disease of the nerves leading to the brain or a condition affecting the function of the inner ear. Most cases of deafness fall into the category of conductive and perceptive deafness, though other cases of deafness are as simple as the result of old age.
A condition of deafness that may result from otosclerosis?
glaucoma
Can bacterial menengitis cause deafness?
Yes, absolutely. That is a common result.
What kind of skin lesion is a pustule?
A raised lesion filled with pus. A pustule is usually the result of an infection, such as acne, imptigeo, or boils.
What do you mean x ray result no new lesion seen?
there is nothing wrong with you
Does conduction make wind?
No. wind is primarily a result of convection.
How do people get Deafness?
You can easily get deaf from very loud noises, or it can just happen as a result of old age.
What is the prognosis for vestibular schwannoma?
Without treatment, vestibular schwannoma will nearly always result in permanent deafness.
