Acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy associated with transient hearing loss.
A case of acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy associated with low tone hearing loss is reported. Both, visual and hearing loss completely recovered. The pattern of low tone hearing loss is similar to that found in vascular lesions of the cochlea and may have the same aetiology as the acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy in this case.
