Capaccio P et al. - The association between inherited and acquired prothrombotic factors in patients with sudden sensorineural hearing loss and thrombotic diseases in other sites suggests that a multifactorial mechanism may underlie microvascular cochlear impairment. Hematologic investigation, including MTHFR, prothrombin, platelet, and V Leiden genotyping, may help to detect patients at potential risk of recurrent hearing loss and multiple microvascular diseases, and could be usefully performed in otherwise idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss.
