Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials testing for diagnosing Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss [PDF]
Sudden sensorineural hearing loss is an emergency condition in otolaryngology. In most cases it manifests as a unilateral reduction in hearing. In addition to hearing loss in one ear, patients often have symptoms such as vertigo and/or tinnitus.

Evaluation of the Relation between Tuning Fork Tests, Glue ear Presence, and Conductive Hearing Loss in Patients with Otitis Media with Effusion [PDF]
Background: In the middle ear inflammation, otitis media with effusion (OME) leads to a sterile effusion. Although most OME resolves without any complications, long-lasting OME may cause conductive hearing loss (CHL). Aim: In this article, we investigate

Can unilateral, progressive or sudden hearing loss be immune-mediated in origin? [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to demonstrate that the positivity of nonspecific immunological tests could be found not only in bilateral hearing loss but also in unilateral cases, either sudden or progressive. METHOD: An observational case

Audio-vestibular symptoms in systemic autoimmune diseases [PDF]
Immune-mediated inner ear disease can be primary, when the autoimmune response is against the inner ear, or secondary. The latter is characterized by the involvement of the ear in the presence of systemic autoimmune conditions. Sensorineural hearing loss
