Abstract EN
This case report highlights an unusual case of sudden sensorineural hearing loss related to superficial siderosis (SS).
Our patient had a craniotomy for medulloblastoma 23 years earlier, and this may represent a delayed complication related to this procedure.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) remains the key diagnostic investigation to illustrate the imaging features of superficial siderosis and exclude other pathologies.
Increased awareness of progressive and sudden hearing complications caused by SS is important in the otolaryngologic community to expedite management and better counsel patients during the consent process.
