IntroductionSudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) is characterized by an abrupt onset of sensorineural hearing impairment, involving a decrease of at least 30 dB in hearing across three consecutive frequencies within a span of 72 h. This condition affects an estimated 5 to 20 individuals out of every 100,000 people annually (1). The precise cause of SSNHL remains elusive, but it is widely believed to result from a complex interplay of factors.

1. Introduction Idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL) was defined as a sudden hearing loss that occurs within 72 h, and pure tone audiometry results show a decline at least in the three adjacent frequencies (>30 dBHL) without any identifiable cause (1), which may lead to difficulty in speech recognition and sound localization, especially in noisy environments, and has a significant negative impact on the quality of life and mental status of patients (2–4).
