Abstract:
A case is presented of a patient with lateral pontine stroke which resulted in a moderate unilateral sensorineural hearing loss. ABR, word recognition scores, acoustic reflexes, neurological evaluation, and CT scan were consistent with brain stem lesion. Recovery of hearing, including acoustic reflexes and word recognition ability, occurred 2 months after the stroke.
