We report vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) in 3 patients with bilateral profound hearing loss in order to confirm that they are not of cochlear origin. All of the 3 patients (31-year-old man, 67-year-old man and 47-year-old woman) had bilateral profound hearing loss. They were diagnosed as having congenital hearing loss, bilateral Ménière's disease and inner ear syphilis. Their pure-tone hearing ranged from 81 dB HL to nearly total hearing loss. Stimulation by click (95 dB nHL) evoked biphasic myogenic responses (p13-n23) on the sternocleidomastoid muscle ipsilateral to the stimulated ear. The ear in which the stimulation did not evoke biphasic myogenic responses did not have a caloric response either. These results suggested that VEMPs are not likely of cochlear origin but of vestibular origin.
