BACKGROUND: The relationship between sudden sensorineural hearing loss and multiple sclerosis is poorly understood. However, over the years it has been observed disdiadococithat sudden sensorineural hearing loss can appear as the initial symptom of multiple sclerosis, or it can occur during the disease indicating a new flare of multiple sclerosis. CLINICAL CASE: A 28-year-old female patient, whose only history is an episode of right facial paralysis two years before her current condition, which was partially resolved with medical treatment. Her condition began with sudden hearing loss in the right ear, medical treatment based on systemic steroids, and a study protocol were initiated. Magnetic resonance with gadolinium evidenced typical multiple sclerosis lesions. CONCLUSIONS: Sudden hearing loss is a rare manifestation of multiple sclerosis and should be suspected primarily in young patients with sudden hearing loss, in addition to hypoesthesia, paresthesia, muscle weakness, ocular changes, and cerebellar disorders.

ANTECEDENTES: La relación entre la hipoacusia neurosensorial súbita y la esclerosis múltiple es poco conocida. Sin embargo, a lo largo de los años se ha observado que la hipoacusia neurosensorial súbita puede aparecer como el síntoma inicial de la esclerosis múltiple, o puede ocurrir durante la enfermedad e indicar un nuevo brote de la esclerosis múltiple. CASO CLÍNICO: Paciente femenina de 28 años, cuyo único antecedente era un episodio de parálisis facial derecha dos años antes de su padecimiento actual, que se alivió de manera parcial con tratamiento médico. Su padecimiento comenzó con pérdida de audición súbita en el oído derecho. Se dio tratamiento médico con esteroides sistémicos. La resonancia magnética con gadolinio evidenció lesiones típicas de esclerosis múltiple. CONCLUSIONES: La pérdida súbita de audición es una rara manifestación de la esclerosis múltiple y esta causa debe sospecharse, principalmente, en pacientes jóvenes con pérdida súbita auditiva, además de hipoestesias, parestesias, debilidad muscular, alteraciones oculares y trastornos cerebelosos.
