Abstract

Sensorineural hearing loss is frequently seen in ear, nose and throat clinics. Its pathophysiology is still unknown. However, viral infections are held responsible. A 66 year-old female patient was admitted to our clinic with hearing loss in her left ear after leaving intensive care. The patient did not have any background of vertigo, ear pain, dizziness or trauma. She was treated in the intensive care unit with the diagnosis of Covid 19. There was no history of any other disease or drug use. Otorhinolaryngologic examination was normal. Weber test was lateralized to the right and rhinne test was negative on the left. In pure tone audiometric examination, 53 db SNHL was detected in the left ear.Biochemical and immunological parameters were normal. Inner ear magnetic resonance imaging was normal. After IV 250 mg Prednisolone, she was managed with 1 mg / kg oral prednisolone. The patient who did not respond to steroid treatment did not accept the intratympanic steroid recommendation. Hearing loss after Covid 19 can be an important cause of morbidity and can be easily overlooked. Cases with Covid 19 should be evaluated in terms of hearing loss.

Özet

Sensörinöral işitme kaybı kulak burun boğaz kliniklerinde sıklıkla görülmektedir. Patofizyolojisi hala bilinmemektedir. Ancak viral enfeksiyonlar sorumlu tutulmaktadır. 66 yaşında kadın hasta yoğun bakımdan çıktıktan sonra sol kulağında işitme kaybı şikayeti ile kliniğimize başvurdu. Hastanın herhangi bir vertigo, kulak ağrısı, baş dönmesi veya travma öyküsü yoktu. Covid 19 tanısıyla yoğun bakımda tedavi görmüştü. Başka bir hastalık veya ilaç kullanım öyküsü yoktu. Kulak burun boğaz muayenesi normaldi. Sağda Weber testi lateralize, solda rinne testi negatifti. Saf ses odyometrik muayenesinde sol kulakta 53 db SNHL saptandı. Biyokimyasal ve immünolojik parametreler normaldi. İç kulak manyetik rezonans görüntülemesi normaldi. İV 250 mg Prednizolon sonrası 1 mg/kg oral prednizolon ile tedavi edildi. Steroid tedavisine yanıt vermeyen hasta intratimpanik steroid önerisini kabul etmedi. Covid 19 sonrası işitme kaybı önemli bir morbidite nedeni olabilir ve kolaylıkla gözden kaçabilir. Covid 19 vakaları işitme kaybı açısından değerlendirilmelidir.
