ABSTRACT
Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is a rarely reported clinical manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Although the exact pathogenesis is still unclear, several reports suggest that circulatory immune complexes or anti-phospholipid antibodies might play a pathological role in hearing impairment in patients with SLE. We describe a 28-year-old female with SLE who presented with sudden SNHL. She was treated with highdose methylprednisolone and plasmapheresis. After 5 times of the plasmapheresis, her hearing ability was improved from 56 dB to 46 dB by measured of pure tone audiometery.
