Abstract:
A vicious circle in the mechanism of sudden deafness is proposed. In order to block this cycle, various drug therapeutics, particularly OHP treatment, are recommended. A beneficial effect can be obtained by starting treatment within 10 days after the onset of sudden deafness. In studies undertaken to elucidate the mechanism of sudden deafness, the fact that relapse is rarely observed may be of importance.
