    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Hematology
    • Otolaryngology

    Background:

    • Waldenström's macroglobulinemia is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder.
    • Neurologic complications are common in Waldenström's macroglobulinemia.

    Observation:

    • A patient with Waldenström's macroglobulinemia presented with sudden hearing loss.
    • This was the initial presenting symptom for the patient.

    Findings:

    • The hearing deficit did not progress over time.
    • Long-term anticoagulant therapy was administered to the patient.

    Implications:

    • Sudden hearing loss may indicate Waldenström's macroglobulinemia.
    • Further research is needed to understand the link between Waldenström's macroglobulinemia and hearing loss.
