AbstractIntroduction:We report the first use in Australia of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for sudden hearing loss following head trauma in a child with large vestibular aqueduct syndrome.Case report:A 12-year-old boy with large vestibular aqueduct syndrome presented with significant hearing loss following head trauma. He was treated with steroids and hyperbaric oxygen therapy, with good improvement of hearing thresholds on audiography. This case represents the first reported use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for this indication in Australia, following a few previous reports of patients in Japan. We review the literature on management of acute sensorineural hearing loss in large vestibular aqueduct syndrome. The reported case demonstrates a potentially beneficial therapy for a rare condition that usually results in an inevitable decline in hearing.Conclusion:Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can be tolerated well by children, and may represent a potential treatment for sudden sensorineural hearing loss in patients with large vestibular aqueduct syndrome.

Large Vestibular Aqueduct

Sudden hearing loss in the only hearing ear cases are rarely published in the English literature; most of the cases are idiopathic. It is an otologic emergency needing urgent treatment. Delayed diagnosis can interfere with patient’s social life with interrupting the verbal communication. In this case report we presented a 33-year-old female patient having sudden sensorineural hearing loss in the only hearing ear diagnosed as bilateral large vestibular aqueduct syndrome.

Fluctuating Hearing Loss

Background: Several otologic conditions can present with fluctuating sensorineural hearing loss, including Ménière’s disease, autoimmune inner ear disease, and enlarged vestibular aqueduct. Although these 3 etiologies vary greatly, distinguishing between these conditions at initial presentation can be challenging. Furthermore, initial treatment of these conditions is often similar. In this review, we discuss historical and current perspectives on diagnosis and treatment of these conditions. Summary: A literature search was performed regarding fluctuating hearing loss, and current treatment of these etiologies of fluctuating hearing loss was summarized. Immediate measures at the onset of acute hearing loss include corticosteroid therapy, while preventative and chronic therapies, which can limit disease severity and frequency, vary based on the specific condition treated. Key Messages: Fluctuating hearing loss can represent a range of pathologies, but the precise etiology may not be clear at initial presentation. Timely treatment and long-term follow-up, along with appropriate diagnostics, are necessary to optimize long-term hearing.
