ABSTRACT
A sickle cell disease [SCO] patient with vaso-occlusive crisis [VOC] developed sudden senserinural hearing loss [SNHL], which responded well to a rapid course of corticosteroids along with exchange transfusions. The otolaryngologist should be aware of the otologic manifestations of SCD such as SNHL A good response to steroids, which averted a permanent hearing loss, warrants further studies to define the augmentive benefits of such therapy along with exchange transfusions in patients with SCD in VOC who develop sudden SNHL
