Title Unilateral sensorineural hearing loss: medical context and etiology
520 3# - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc Objective: Unilateral sensorineural hearing loss (USNHL) is<br/>known to impact on school performance and social skills<br/>during childhood, but the etiologies remain unclear. The aim<br/>of this study was to assess various etiologies and to study the<br/>clinical contexts in this population. Methods: The study is a<br/>retrospective review. Characteristics of hearing loss (HL), audiometric<br/>parameters, imaging, and genetic and medical<br/>contexts were analyzed. Results: Eighty children were included.<br/>USNHL was profound in 68%, could be progressive<br/>in 19%, and become bilateral in 7.5% of cases. Inner ear malformations<br/>were identified in 41% of cases; cochlear nerve<br/>deficiency (CND) was frequent (33%). Cytomegalovirus<br/>(CMV) infection and genetic syndromes were confirmed in<br/>10 and 6% of cases, respectively. Conclusion: Long-term<br/>hearing follow-up remains useful in USNHL as it can become<br/>bilateral. Looking to etiology, MRI should be the gold standard,<br/>as CND is frequently observed and screening for CMV<br/>infection should be systematic. Genetic etiologies appear to<br/>be different compared to bilateral HL. Further genetic research<br/>in this domain is needed.
