摘要:Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) is an enigmatic entity,with obscure pathophysiology and debatable efficacy of the treatment agents used.An underlying cause is identified in only 10-15% of cases.The management of the remaining patients,classified as 'idiopathic',is empirical,and is conventionally with systemic steroids,vasodilator therapy,rheological agents,and antioxidants,to list a few amongst the host of the agents employed for the treatment.The availability of conflicting outcomes and lack of conclusive evidence has resulted in the propagation of consensus-based treatment protocols.In the present review,we discuss the various controversial issues and newer developments in the management of idiopathic SSNHL.The current review aims to present a narrative outlook of the updated evidence base available from PUBMED,augmented with relevant designated publications.
