Nerve conduction deafness is one of the two types of deafness that can happen. It occurs when there is a break in communication between the nerve cells and the inner ear.
Yes the result from a lesion on the cochlear nerve is sensorineural deafness. The result from the fusion of the ossicles is conduction deafness.
No, only conduction deafness is correctable with hearing aids
conduction deafness may occur.

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.

One test used to determine conduction deafness is Weber's Test. A fork is vibrated against the forehead and should be heard equally in both ears. If it is heard best in the 'good' ear than it is sensorineural deafness but if it is heard best in the 'bad' ear then this is what determines the conduction deafness.
