[Clinical aspects of sudden deafness].
Sudden deafness is a disease of multifactorial genesis. The cause remains as ever unknown. In addition to the vascular theory, the possibility of a perilymphatic fistula due to rupture of the oval or the round window membranes has gained more significance. Therefore the treatment of sudden deafness should begin as soon as possible. We treat such patients with infusions of Dextran 40. BVK and Complamin in increasing amounts, in addition to stella-ganglion block. It is not justifiable, for legal reasons to withhold treatment, and therapy should begin immediately.
