Mitral valve prolapse and sudden deafness.
International Journal of Cardiology 2008 March 15
To examine the association between MVP and Idiopathic Sudden Sensorineural Hearing loss (ISSNHL). 349 subjects, 86 with ISSNHL and 263 controls underwent a 2D-echocardiography. Patients with ISSNHL had higher rates of MVP (29.1% vs 2.7%, p<0.001), mitral leaflet thickening (15.1% vs 2.3%, p<0.001), mitral regurgitation (16.3% vs 6.5%, p=0.02) and left atrial enlargement (11.6% vs 3.8%, p=0.01). Our results support the hypothesis that MVP could be one of the etiological factors of ISSNHL.
