title: [Hypoacusis in pediatric patients with allergic rhinitis].
abstract: Currently, allergic disorders represent an important problem of public health. Besides having high prevalence they begin their clinical manifestations at early ages, in 75% of the cases before five years old. When they do not receive the proper treatment, they have systemic affectation, with a repercussion in the quality of life. The great comorbidity can cause a late and wrong diagnosis. In this article we review the relationship between hypoacusis and allergic rhinitis, with a description of their epidemiology, pathophysiology and clinical manifestations.
