Paparella MM et al. - Sudden deafness associated with vestibular symptoms can develop rapidly over a day or so. Although the exact incidence of sudden deafness is not known, some studies have suggested that at least 40,000 cases occur annually in the United States. These cases are caused by multiple known, as well as unknown, etiologies. Known causes include acoustic or physical trauma, infection, surgical iatrogenic injury, vestibular schwannoma, auto-immune disorders, and sudden attacks of Meniere disease.By definition, the causes of idiopathic sudden deafness are less certain.
