title: [Viral infection and sudden perceptive deafness (serological examinations) (author's transl)].
abstract: Among the numerous and various known etiologies of sudden deafness viral infection is discussed. Therefore sera of 126 patients were examined for viral antibodies to Influenza, Parainfluenza, Mumps, Measles, RS-virus, Rubella, Herpesvirus and Adenovirus. They were compared to sera of healthy patients. Our results suggest no strong association between sudden deafness and viral infection.
