Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is a type of hearing loss in which the root cause lies in the inner ear, sensory organ (cochlea and associated structures), or the vestibulocochlear nerve (cranial nerve VIII). SNHL accounts for about 90% of reported hearing loss.
Sensorineural hearing loss may be a common condition, but each individual's experience is unique, and so are the solutions. The world of audiology offers an extensive array of tools designed to ...
Autoimmune inner ear disease (AIED) was first defined by Dr. Brian McCabe in a landmark paper describing an autoimmune loss of hearing. [2] The disease results in progressive sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) that acts bilaterally and asymmetrically, and sometimes affects an individual's vestibular system.

Cochleosaccular degeneration with progressive cataracts, also known as autosomal dominant progressive sensorineural hearing loss and cataracts [1] is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the adult-onset combination of cochleosaccular degeneration and progressive cataract [2] which is transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait for generations in entire families, [3] essentially resulting in ...
The sensorineural hearing loss in Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome is present from birth and can be diagnosed using audiometry or physiological tests of hearing. [7] The cardiac features of JLNS can be diagnosed by measuring the QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) on a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG). The QTc is less than 450 ms in 95% ...
Cortical deafness is a rare form of sensorineural hearing loss caused by damage to the primary auditory cortex.Cortical deafness is an auditory disorder where the patient is unable to hear sounds but has no apparent damage to the structures of the ear (see auditory system).
The hearing loss associated with VCFS is conductive when otitis media is present (Peterson-Falzone et al., 2001). There are also sporadic reports of sensorineural hearing loss and a mixed hearing loss. Of individuals with VCFS who have a hearing loss, only 11% had a sensorineural loss and 5% a mixed loss (Reyes et al., 1999).
