Abstract
There are numerous causes for deafness of sudden onset such as temporal bone fracture, viral labyrinthitis, otitic barotrauma, vestibular schwannoma, and Ménière’s disease [1]. Since these causes often evade clear recognition, many cases of deafness of sudden onset are labeled as acute idiopathic auditory failure (sudden deafness). A significant number of these cases, however, are actually due to endolymphatic hydrops (EH).
